I was hesitant to stop by the store due to one of the reviews below(not recommended by Unilocal) and I’ve had some bad experiences with collection stores in the past too(I’m an avid classic gaming collector and I collected Magic/Comics years ago). Very glad I ignored that bad review and stopped by for a visit. Amazing store, good selection, great/friendly owner. The first thing you’ll notice when you walk in the store is the DVD collection. They have a huge inventory. I’m not a big collector of DVD’s so I can’t really comment on the prices or selection. However, they have a ton, they are well organized, and I’m sure if you are looking for movies this would be a great place to come. I was really impressed with their collection of Board Games. I’ve always wanted to try some of the challenging games like The Settlers of Catan(which the store had an entire collection), but have always shied away because of the price(I’d hate to buy a game I know very little about and find out that I don’t like them). Next time I’m in the store, I’ll ask the owner about them and find out more information. I mainly checked out the store today for their Graphic Novels and Comics. I haven’t collected in years and I just wanted to pick up a few good books for their stories. The owner helped me find the Walking Dead comics I wanted and pointed out some books he highly recommended. The store has a wall of «guaranteed» books, in which they’ll buy the book back if you don’t like them. In addition to that, they offer a buy 10 and get 1 free card. I only glanced quickly at their video games because I was in a hurry and had already spent a good amount of time talking to the owner. I like my games in mint condition with boxes and manuals. Most of the titles seemed to be loose carts(I’m talking about older stuff), so this might not be the best selection for hard-core collectors, but they had a large selection for people just interested in a good game. The best part of the store is the owner. You can always find collectables cheaper online(don’t forget online stores don’t have overhead like rent), but you come to places like this for the customer service. You can tell Jim loves what he does and is excited to share it with others. There’s so much stuff out there to buy that it is really nice to have stores like Jimmyjams for suggestions. Great clean and organized store. I’ll be back when I’m in town.

Jimmy Jam’s is the only comic book store in Winona with a great selection of graphic novels and new comic books as well as board games and video games. The store is easy to navigate, but if you have questions the friendly employees are always willing to help you find something or make a suggestion. On weekends people often come in and play Magic and other games in the back of the store.
