Ok first off to clear things up, this is a sports card shop that happens to sell magic, Yugio, and pokemon. If you are dealing with sports memorabilia they have the time of day for you. However if you are looking for the items mentioned above, Ken (who I believe is an owner) will barely give you the time of day. Sure their accessories are cheap. They can do this because they are a direct supply distributor. He told me himself. However they have their showcase cards pre-priced. In an ever fluctuating market these need to be updated more consistently or at least removed so they can be priced accordingly at the time of sale. This Ken will NOT do. He will inform you that he doesn't have the time for you. So in return even though I wanted to clean out half his case (I'm from out of town, stopped by to see the lgs' of the area) I no longer had the time for Ken. I understand a local shop trying to stay relevant in these days, but for a place that claims to have been around for ten years, they need to get with the times. I've spoke to several other shops and patrons in the area now and they all agree on one thing. DO NOT SPEAK TO KEN. This man singlehandedly is the reason I will never step foot in there again. Prices might be good on some things, but not worth dealing with that abysmal little man. Message to the son. Kick your dad to the curb. He's ruining your buisness because he's toxic. To bad I'll never know if you rectify this, because you've already lost a...
Read moreMy family has been collecting Pokemon cards or over a year. We live over two hours away and happen to come across it during a family trip. We were AMAZED by the prices and selection. This store is BY FAR THE BEST PRICED store for Pokemon cards in the Mid-Atlantic area!!! Yes, Mid-Atlantic!
We regularly purchase booster boxes (boxes with 36 packs) and Card Stadium sells them at $95 per box. I know 7-8 card shops that sell the exact same boxes for $120 to $150 each. They overprice their products and it's frustrating.
Since finding Card Stadium we have only purchased items from here. It's amazing and the service is top notch. For Christmas we bought eight booster boxes from here at the lowest prices possible. Also, their products are not tampered or fake. We have extensive experience inspecting boxes, cards, etc.
We love this store and will continue to support a great business like this who don't rip off their customers. Example: My local card should right now is selling a booster box of Silver Tempest (current set for Pokemon) for $130. Card Stadium is selling it for $95. This is by far the best place to...
Read moreReally happy with this place! Their selection is amazing and includes Pokemon, MTG, sports, you name it. Their prices were lower than expected and the guy working there was very nice and patient with me while I took forever to decide what I wanted. I'm really glad I finally decided to check them out and I will definitely be in there again.
Update: I've been to a bunch of other card shops (across multiple states) and I can say with confidence that none compare to Card Stadium. They have the absolute best prices around and their selection is also hard to beat. Don't go anywhere else!
PSA: In March of 2023, it was said that Card Stadium customers could use the parking lot by Tobacco Hut. Then, in December of 2023, shortly after ownership of Card Stadium changed, Tobacco Hut said they would tow anyone in the parking lot who isn't buying tobacco and only gave a 1 day notice. The Tobacco Hut next door then wrote fake reviews on both Card Stadium's page and their own. If you're visiting Card Stadium, don't give Tobacco Hut any business. They're...
