The staff was awesome. Me and my partner came from out of town and decided to visit some card shops while we were in Chicago.. AMAZING selection.. bunch of vintage, rare packs to find, etc. store was a bit small, and prices were a bit higher than I anticipated. Overall amazing people, beautiful selection.
Solid lowkey Pokémon card spot with friendly staff. The sealed selection is the best I’ve seen in Chicago and spans multiple eras - boosters, blisters, bundles, ETBs, display boxes and more. Singles selection was okay, but I came in during a card show weekend when their full selection wasn’t on site.
I started visiting this spot about a month and a half ago now. Ive been stopping by once a week since then. I always buy something 🤦 ive only bought loose packs up to this point. Im still learning about Pokémon. Really cool place!
Best Pokemon shop in the city by far. Very fair prices, all at current market value. Absolutely loaded with sealed products.
