My wife and I visited today and it was a great experience! The store was laid out great and merchandised very nice. Large selection of vintage and modern. From comics to action figures to trading cards they had a bit of everything. Everyone was very friendly and the store was neat and clean. Highly recommended!

I have at least 12-15 thousand cards could I drop them off at a time and then have them call me later for us to work out a deal ?

Dustin Freedman | Oct 24, 2020
Rachelle Thomas | Oct 24, 2020

Yes but its take time & patience. There's actually a couple things you can do 1st before dropping em off. 1) obtain a paper copy of their buy list so you you can sort thru & narrow down to those, it'd be super helpful. In addition to the buy list they're always interested in looking at anything older than the 70's [going by copyright date of card, usually found on the back]. 2) call to find out if & when their currently buying. 3) You can arrange to have them dropped off, the card guys can go thru em when able to, & then they can call you to inform when they've finalized.

Where can I sale old magazine

Kathy Ketterman | Oct 25, 2019
Rick Croyd | Oct 25, 2019

It would certainly depend on the type and year of the magazines. However, to sell them locally? I would say barring Craigslist or Ebay. Bankstons would be a decent choice for Comicbooks that are in good shape. Probably early 1970's. Anything in 1990's probably wouldn't yield much in regards to cash. Ultimately it would be up to the store. Never hurts to ask.

can they grade cards or authenticate them in any way?

JayRay 3rdCoast | Oct 25, 2018
Gary Makries | Oct 25, 2018

I'm sure they can if you are trying to sell them to the store. Otherwise, I doubt they will.

You could always call ahead to see if they will look at your sports cards. If not you can see what ebay is selling them for and give some competition or pass them down to other generations.
