I actually appreciate this place, just not for the reason you would think or their sales. I’ll pick out a few cards, make a reasonable cash offer, and get shot down by the heavyset redhead dude behind the counter. That’s my cue to pull out my phone, use their tag as the "what not to pay" baseline, and snag the exact same cards on eBay for a fraction of their cost 🤷‍♂️😂 Card Addicts in Pelham is also great for this as well lol

If you have a kiddo who loves Pokémon, you definitely need to check out Iron City Games! The staff is incredibly friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to help kids find the cards they’re looking for, and even better, they take the time to teach kids (and adults) how to play. It’s such a welcoming place, and you can tell they genuinely love helping families enjoy the game. We’re always happy to stop in!

Came in one day to look around and purchase some Pokémon cards from here. When I asked about prices of single cards I was told they don't have any because they go off TCGplayer. Fair enough, except there is very low cell service in the building so I was unable to see prices of anything without asking. The guy I asked for prices was clearly annoyed with me by card #3 of wanting to know the price, god forbid you want to know the price of something before you buy it...the prices were noticeably well above market but I would always try to support local businesses anyway. I ended up settling for a handful of sleeved booster packs hanging up away from the other cards, which I thought was weird, and a few packs from the wall behind the counter. When I got home and open thr first sleeved pack, I instantly knew there was a problem as the lip of the cardboard popped off in a way inconsistent with sleeved booster packs. The others came off the same exact way. The glue that held them together was reapplied thus making the packs opened or at least not completely sealed. Out of all of those packs, not one single card value above a regular rarity. I have been collecting for over 20+ years and have seen enough to know when something is off. It's a shame because it us tge most local store to me and it would have gained a valued customer but I can honestly say that nothing on this planet would get me to go back into that store again with all things considered here.

Best LGS I've been to yet. Super fair trade in rates especially for store credit, which is no problem because their selection of product and singles is immense! Staff was super friendly and helpful. Will 100% be back!

Came in to this shop for the first time for my birthday looking to get something fun. I brought a bunch of cards and a $100 gift card. I ended up trading about $1300 worth of raw cards for a prismatic 14 pack box, a PSA 10 reshirmam/zard rainbow, PSA 10 Marnies Morpeko, and PSA 10 shiny zard from shining fates. Out of that trade, I lost a bit, but it was a pretty fair exchange in my opinion. Then when I got home I open the prismatic packs with my daughter, and wouldnt you know, I hit my first ever Demi-God pack and got the Umbreon SIR!!! Won't shop any other card shop after this, their prices were fair, and they were great to work with, 10/10 would recommend!
