πŸ’¬ Collector Notes

Independent editorial assessment

Strong modern wax lineup with decent restocks and some hobby boxes in the caseβ€”not just blasters. Singles are mostly raw, mid-tier, but they keep freshly comped stuff in the display cases. Heavy TCG crowd most days, but you’ll find some clean slabs and nice color if you digβ€”definitely not a “junk wax graveyard.”
