💬 Collector Notes

Independent editorial assessment

Heavy on the TCG side—mostly Magic and Pokémon with very little in the way of sports. Friendly staff who know their sets, but the place has an old school vibe—tight aisles, stacks everywhere. Good for picking up playable singles, not a great spot if you’re hunting slabs or vintage wax.
