  They have an extensive collection of MtG cards with staff that are intimately familiar with the game and can help you easily find what you're looking for!

  The store has a really big area with tables for playing, a very large selection of books and if terrain is your thing you will find everything you could possibly need.

  I've always had a very mixed experience with these guys. It has vastly improved since they renovated and added a separate section for MtG. Prior to this the gentleman that ran the card counter was incredibly rude and would constantly ignore paying customers to converse with friends of his. I don't see him here often so this experience is largely avoidable now.

  The shopping experience is generally great. Most of the employees are attentive to customers and enjoy sharing their mutual love of board games. Only negative is that I wish they were more competitive in their pricing. I often find myself shopping at other Canadian online board game stores to save 30-40% from what Sentry asks for. even though I would prefer to shop locally, sometimes the cost difference just does not make this a feasible option!

  If you are going in not knowing what your looking for, write off your afternoon because you will be lost in this vortex for hours.

  HUGE store! Like, not a bit big, or impressively sized; I'm talking intimidatingly large.

  Tons of free play space, tournaments, twitch streams, and a large variety of games and supplies to choose from. Staff love games and it shows. Careful on pricing - they price off USD exchange and have a daily exchange posted on the doors just be aware. They are my source for impulse game pickups and sleeves :)

  The Sentry Box is an amazing place of everything geek/gamer related. A huge selection of products from role playing games, board games, books, table top gaming, card games, Warhammer, painting and crafting supplies. Many unique, hard to find, rare or discontinued items can be found here. The staff is very helpful. I could spent hours here. Also there is space for people to get together to game.
