💬 Collector Notes
Independent editorial assessment
This spot leans vintage and modern sports, with some older TCG stuff if you dig. They’ve got a decent wall of high-end slabs and plenty of raw singles to comp through. The owner’s an old-school type—direct, but knows his stuff cold—so come correct and prepared to talk cardboard.

Mike and Dan were awesome to chat with. They know their stuff and have plenty of vintage singles (baseball, football, especially). Will come back if ever in the area.
