💬 Collector Notes

Independent editorial assessment

Heavy on the TCG side—Pokémon, MTG, and Yu-Gi-Oh! singles and sealed dominate the cases, not much in the way of vintage sports or hobby wax. Staff are helpful and actually comping fairly, but if you’re looking for slabs or mid-to-high end sports stuff, this isn’t really that kind of shop. Clean layout though, not your typical old school clutter cave.
