    Great selection of stock, but prepare to spend a LOT of time at checkout, if they need to start looking through their paper inventory list.

    I used to look forward to shopping at Blick when I was in the city, but their corporate mask ban for currently healthy employees is a step beyond the pale for worker's rights. I shall no longer patronize Blick.
