This place is amazing! Just wanted to point out how many mini figure paints and supplies they have. Also as all the other photos point out, amazing board game selection and singles for cards and card packs!

Guardians has a big variety of tabletop games, cards, dice, books and more. They are following covid restrictions and the staff is really helpful.

It had been just over two years since my last visit to GG, so I wasn't used to the layout at all. An employee helped me find what I was searching for very quickly. Even though the store was decently busy, checkout was quick and smooth, even with me talking up the cashier. I'll definitely be back soon, I'm getting back into MTG, after almost a decade of not playing.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Do you guys sell or know anywhere that sells Star Wars Destiny tokens?

Sara Cady | Aug 14, 2022
Angel May | Aug 15, 2022

If we are out of the specific branded tokens you are looking for, we sell many alternative game bits and pieces that could be substituted, many of which are arguably more fun and eye catching.

I was wondering if I could sell Pokémon cards here and get a good price for them? Thank you

MoneyBaller99 | Aug 14, 2022
Daisy Doodle | Aug 15, 2022

Yes, they buy Pokemon and MTG cards. Prices are about average for a lgs, don't expect to get more than 50% of the cards value back in cash. Definitely more like 60-70% in store credit though.

I found while moving that I have 20 sealed booster packs for battle tech, first edition. Do they have any value? I saw one on Ebay with a $50 asking price. Am I accidentally sitting on good stuff? Thanks all

Lee H | Aug 14, 2022
Melinda Dominguez | Aug 15, 2022

That is a question best answered by the experts at The Guardian....this google map is kinda more like if someone out there knows things like the hours of the store ...and if there is parking nearby kinda stuff....😀....but good luck.

Do they buy collections? And do they price out each card individually. I have a sizable collection 3000+ cards

Ben Smith | Aug 14, 2022
T Legend | Aug 15, 2022

You best bet is going through all of you card finding out what kind of card it is (rare or common etc.) Then take them all your rares and have fun most uncommons and commons they probably have depending on the game, so the card maybe only worth $00.15 vs a rare which can be anywhere from $1 - $200 Ive seen cards at a pretty high cost but I go there every weekend almost they are really helpful with things like if you dont want to do it all by yourself like me lol

Lauren Venator | Aug 15, 2022

Agree. Craigslist or Ebay. Chances are, if you had a rare and ultra valuable card you'd definitely know. Most of them sparkle. And are in japanese.
