I just visited the new store location. Great selection of wax, but box prices are mostly at or above eBay prices. I don't blame them, but just wanted to mention it. The pricing on supplies is pretty great. I'd love to see more $1 singles to go through. There is a section of cases that people lease from the store.

★★★★☆ Andy, Sep 2022

Stopped in to see what they had. Most of the stock was new. A few older cards. Very impressed by their stock of display and storage merchandise. Pretty much anything imaginable for cards, comic books, balls, you name it. Certainly would be a go to place if I need anything like that.

★★★★☆ Ed, Jul 2025

I stopped in a few times to look around. I was very impressed by the inventory and service. I started making weekly visits with my kids. The owners and staff were very accommodating. The website and mailing list are great resources. They host a variety of events focused on collecting.

★★★★★ Joe, Nov 2017

I ordered a cubs world series box set and a funko. Both came in great condition. I'm excited to add both to my collection. I am also happy I saw you were having a sale on boxes as Bezos has enough of my money
