My husband and I were introduced to 1 Up Collectibles about a year ago by a friend of his. I still remember the first time I met Lee, the owner of the shop. He impressed me as a really nice and honest guy who was willing to just shoot the breeze with a fellow comic lover (my husband) and a total comic noob (yea, that's me). I also remember that we didn't buy anything on that first trip to the store but 2 weeks later when we decided to pop in again Lee actually recognized us and was very welcoming and helpful. I think that is one of the things that I love most about 1-Up, when you walk in you are recognized as a person and not as pocketbook, unlike the feeling I get when I walk into some other local comic shops.
