What Our Customers Say About Us

A welcoming environment with knowledgable and friendly staff. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • Izzy L GOOGLE REVIEW

    THE best place around for your Pokemon cards, POP vinyls and everything in between. Staff are amazing, extremely knowledgeable and so friendly and welcoming, whether you’re a beginner or have been collecting for years. They have a huge range of products available, from cards to binders to slabs and other collectibles, and offer competitive prices for trade ins. If you can’t find something of interest here, I’d be amazed. They even make my pup feel welcome! They really helped advise my partner on a Christmas present for me this year who doesn’t have any experience in Pokemon cards, and it was 100% my favourite! 10/10 experience every time. Thank you guys!

  • Tyler E GOOGLE REVIEW

    I recently visited the Pokémon and Pop Shop, and it was an absolute delight! The store boasts an amazing selection of Pokémon merchandise, from cards and plushies to exclusive collectibles, and the pop culture items are equally impressive. What truly stood out was the exceptional customer service. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, making me feel welcomed and valued as a customer. I left with some fantastic finds and an overall wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

  • Daniel B GOOGLE REVIEW

    Our weekend go to spot. The best pokemon & funko shop around. There's not a weekend we dont visit to top up binders and funko shelfs. Staff are amazing and super helpful, prices are great. There's no reason not to drop in. We always come with our 2 small kids and they always look after them and engage with them. Kids actually pick a trip to CRIT on a Saturday afternoon over anything else, this just shows how great this place is. Always active on social media updating on new stock and running special events. My favourite is the mystery weekend which offers 3 mystery funko pops at a bargain of only £10 and pokemon graded cards with values far above asking price. It really doesn't matter if you have been collecting for 30 years or new collector this shop is for everyone. Great location in a great town center, go and give them a visit

  • Joseph C GOOGLE REVIEW

    Been a couple of times, and every time the guys at Crit have been amazing! Always super helpful and extremely knowledgeable. Went it at the weekend just gone and traded in some unwanted cards got an amazing price and came away with some new cards for my own collection while still having plenty left over to get my kids a couple of things! Would highly recommend and will definitely be going back in the near future 😁

  • Chris M GOOGLE REVIEW

    Brilliant store and great staff. The place is spotless and is a gallery of all the cards you wish you could afford, no way to catch them all without the lottery. Great magic selection and it's not just cards, they do merchandise as well. My wife will ban me if I come back with gunpla. She only knows about my 30k habit, she has no idea of my magic collection, I have hidden folders around the house like a scavenger hunt. But I love to visit to add to the collection I obviously dont have. A must for geeks with collection issues and no money and no room to store the 'i dont have any cards' collections

  • Chris H FACEBOOK REVIEW

    Where do I start these guys, they are just INCREDIBLE, the shop is just INCREDIBLE, Nathan, John, Chloe, Georgia and Josh, me and my boy look forward all week to our visit, we're so lucky to have such a great community shop that delivers 100% on every aspect all of the time, keep up the great work guys.
