💬 Collector Notes
Independent editorial assessment
Solid spot if you’re chasing modern wax—tons of sealed product and a decent wall of high-end for slabs. Singles are organized by sport, but it’s more polished than your typical old-school shop. Staff knows their comps and aren’t afraid to haggle a little if you’re working on your PC.
