Best Card Shop

I’ve been here a few times. Their stock of sports and Pokémon cards is decent, but that’s because everything is heavily marked up at or above market price. ​My issue is that they have zero process for accurately evaluating card conditions. They price raw singles at Near Mint market value and seal them behind a kaleidoscope of a penny sleeve, top loader, and a plastic pouch. Conveniently, the price tags cover the card corners. ​Today, I did my best to inspect a card through all the plastic and paid around $85 for a copy marked "Lightly Played" (LP). Once opened, it was a disaster. Under proper lighting, the front foil was heavily scratched, and the back had extensive edge wear and two clear creases. This card is Heavily Played (HP) or Damaged (DMG)—not LP. ​When I called to ask about their grading process, the employee literally told me, "We just look at them," and offered a hollow "Oh, sorry" when I explained the severe damage they missed. ​Between the inflated prices, nonexistent condition standards, and the owner’s track record of leaving snippy, unprofessional responses to negative feedback, I won't be returning. Save your money and shop elsewhere.

I am from Richmond and travel to Plainfield on the weekends to see my wife who is a travel nurse and stays there for 13 weeks at a time. We both love visiting your store and buying hobby boxes and sorting cards. You have a great selection of cards. Its one of our regular stops. Today will be our last visit until mid May when she starts another contract. See you then!

Great card shop. Beautifully set up. Very friendly and inviting. Has all the modern products you could want. The guys are awesome and fun to shoot the shit with every visit. Highly recommend making this your go-to stop!

Great card shop ! Would recommend to anyone in Indy! Some of the countless hits I’ve pulled recently.

Visiting Indy from South Carolina for work. Happened to spot this shop when commuting back into the city. Pulled in and was blown away. Couple highlights. The amount of sealed product this store has is ridiculous. Not just recent release but a healthy back catalog as well. I mean they had an entire display case of hockey product and I wasn’t even aware Upper Deck made that many releases. Higher end product is locked up in nice display cases but nice to see some shelves with open access products on them. All the card shops I go to have EVERYTHING behind the counter (which I 100% understand with theft) so it was nice to see this change. Lots of single packs as well for purchase from Hobby Boxes (including stuff you never see like 09 Topps Football, 99 Fleer Basketball). Lots of Pokémon, MTG, Star Wars and Marvel sets as well (hard to find a sports card store that also has a good selection of MTG). Lots of supplies, signed memorabilia, Topps shirts, etc. Nice little lounge area with sports on the TV. Not a massive amount of graded singles but everything in the case I looked at was high quality (including a ton of Bowman 1sts) and I know singles inventory ebbs and flows. I wasn’t able to purchase anything because I was on a schedule and didn’t even plan on stopping in but couldn’t pass up the opportunity and I’m glad I didn’t. Took videos and pictures while I was in there to send my friends who collect as well. Will be making a trip back next time I’m in Indy. Side note: I told my coworker who I’m traveling with when we got back into the car that I couldn’t wait to read the reviews on the shop because people are so petty about the dumbest things when it comes to the hobby. These DID NOT disappoint. Please understand that trading cards are a specialized industry which is why you don’t see a card shop on every corner of your city. The market shifts every minute and most card shops adjust accordingly. You may pay a few dollars more than what you find online but the fact this shop keeps as much as they do on hand (which you do not see in every shop) makes up for any markup there may be. You wouldn’t go into a car dealership or to a real estate agent and expect pricing that is not justified based on the market. Treat card shops with this mentality. A little foreknowledge and research beforehand as the consumer can go a long way in setting reasonable expectations when buying/selling cards. Overall - this shop is a must go destination if you’re in the Indy area, even if just to be blown away at the quality of the entire establishment like I was. Will be back soon.
