πŸ’¬ Collector Notes

Independent editorial assessment

Sleek setup with a curated wall of high-end slabsβ€”mostly modern. Not a bulk box or junk wax bin in sight, so don’t come hunting for dollar digs. Staff knows their comps, and it’s more of a social ripping lounge vibe than a deep inventory shopβ€”feels built for breakers and flippers.
