What We Buy
We buy and trade sport cards, non-sport cards, and TCG singles and sealed boxes (Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc.). We do not purchase commons or bulk from any sport or trading card game at this time.

Tips for Selling
- Bring your cards in a neat and organized fashion. If a collection is too disorganized for our buyers to review, we may ask you to organize it and come back.
- For larger collections that require extra time, please contact us in advance to inquire about scheduling an appointment.
- No appointment is needed for standard walk-in selling during buying hours.
Payment Options
We offer several ways to get paid:
- Zelle
- PayPal
- Check
- Cash (for deals under $1,000)
- Store credit: We offer 10% more than our cash offer if you choose store credit, which can be used on anything in the store.
Appointments & Large Collections
If you have a larger-than-average collection, please reach out to us before visiting. After reviewing details about your collection, we can schedule an appointment if the items are within our buying parameters. Appointments can range from 15 minutes to several hours depending on the size and value of the collection.
We do not currently travel to buy collections, though we may make exceptions under special circumstances. If we agree on a price beforehand, we do accept mail-in collections.
