💬 Collector Notes
Independent editorial assessment
Tight layout but clean, and they’ve got a decent blend—TCG and sports are both represented, though it leans TCG-heavy on the shelves. Solid case of slabs and some mid-tier raw stuff for comping, especially if you’re looking to trade into Wax or fill PCs. The owner knows his comps and isn’t afraid to talk shop, so don’t come in trying to move junk wax unless it’s for nostalgia.
