Excellent stock and customer service!
I got in touch with the Gaming Circus on Instagram, in relation to a game I was looking for. Once I found out how close they were to me, they advised that they do a click and collect. They were great in working around my awkward work hours so that I could pick it up.
Happy I found their Instagram and regularly look at their site when I'm looking for a game. I love to support local businesses.
Thank you and definitely a recommendation coming from me!
