Chess set in Columbia, SC?

Question

Where can I get a chess set here in Columbia, SC? I am not American and I do not live here in the US, so I have no idea of where to go to find it.

Could you please name some stores?

Thanks a lot!!!

Answer 1

Toys-R-Us has several and so does Target, WalMart and K-Mart.

Even Barnes & Noble book store carries them.  I bought a very nice wooden magnetic folding one for $20 a year ago.  A great deal!

Dollar stores carry them too.

A great place to buy them online is:http://www.chessusa.com/

I've used Chess USA several times and they are really good to deal with and have excellent customer service!

You can also search online and find boards and pieces to print out on your computer and make your own if you're desperate enough.  Try here for printable chess pieces:
