Another former customer chiming in to say "they USED to be the best". They were my main and only breaker for years up until now. I received TLaw RCs with literal BBQ sauce fingerprints on them (msg me for pics!), they began randomly holding my orders for pick up and now cards take 2 WEEKS to receive! They are the epitome of "covid collectors" that don't understand "first to market" concept and seem more interested in finding ways to take your money (dl their new app 🤣). Many times there is no case hit which is sus but I can't prove breakers obvi are buying the boxes when there are
Read moreTrading card breaks are a fun and reasonably affordable method to collect or chase cards that can you can keep or resale for hundreds or thousands of dollars. This is especially true when products are newly released. In a lot of instances, you have a narrow window of opportunity to sell product you may have gotten from a break for optimal value in resale marketplaces, such as eBay. After a few weeks, the resale market becomes saturated, except for the low number or more rare items within the product, which obviously will dilute value (supply vs. demand). The importance of receiving products from breaks extremely quickly is paramount to maximizing value. However, when you break at such a large scale, it can be challenging to sort and ship products super fast. That is something that I have noticed with all breakers at this scale, with Real Breaks not being an exception. They will always have new and exciting products, in large quantities. There is no shortage of varying break formats for these products, which can make participating more cost-effective to the consumer. I know they strive to have products shipped within 3 days of a break. I believe this is three business days though, so if you break mid-week, it could be Tue/Wed of the following week before the mail carrier takes possession of your package. I don't break with them enough to gauge metrics on that, but the past few times I have participated, it took my product 1.5 - 2 weeks to arrive at my door from the night the break happened. Unfortunately, 2 weeks after a product's release means aftermarket resale for cards you received is likely saturated. I'm still giving them five stars for being the greatest group of breakers in the industry and fostering a family-friendly environment within...
Read moreMy husband and I were interested in getting some of our newer and older Pokemon cards graded and didn’t know where to start. This store was recommended to us by a friend so we decided to give it a shot. We weren’t really sure what was/was not worth getting graded so we just walked in with our binders of cards.
The shop itself is very clean and nice and we looked around a bit before we got help. The guy that helped us was very nice (didn’t get his name but has a ginger beard) and took the time to look at our cards and narrow down what we were looking for and what we wanted graded and what ones to keep an eye on and maybe grade later. He was very informative and knowledgeable and we were all having good conversations and some laughs. He was nice enough to put some of the cards we decided to not grade into top loaders for us as well as some of my older cards that would not grade high but were nostalgic to me.
We ended up deciding on grading three cards to start and they make the process very easy to do. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a reliable shop to get some PSA grading done on their Pokemon cards! They also do lots of events and things for kids too so check them out and see if they have something...
