Esther's Sports Cards and Collectibles — Local services in Ashtabula

Come here every time we are in the mall. Love saying hi to Esther, she's the kind of woman you want her to adopt you as a grandkid. She is sweet and lovable and honestly cares. She really knows her stuff or how to find it. She does layaway and works with people who are new to a game to get started and learn. She had tournaments too where you can play locally. There are tables in the back to hang out at and talk card shop, test decks, and learn. She has Magic, Yugioh, and Pokemon as the main trading card game cards, but she does baseball cards, Dragon Ball cards, and just about any others I've heard of. She has all the storage and card sleeves you need. Bought for my dad the display cases for The Beatles trading cards I got him for Christmas, and he adores them. You can order cards or things special too. If Esther can't find it, her son in the shop down the street might be able to. We got our advent calendars for Yugioh here and were super happy with them. There are also bulk commons in the back, and very well priced, but you might have to dig a bit. Found extra cards I didn't know existed that rounded out a deck I was building while digging, so it might be a good thing to have to dig! But really, Esther, adopt me and Jake, you're...

Came to her seeking advice and knowledge on something I thought she’d be capable of sharing some valuable information about some of my cards. I brought nothing but Bo Jackson, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa, Mcguires, Canseco’s, Belle, Jordan, Shaq, and plenty of other superstars from late 80’s and 90’s. More or less she offered me $20. Which I wasn’t even there to sale cards like that. Just wanted some information. Once she realized I wasn’t gonna talked into handing over 200 something cards of some of the greatest athletes from the 90’s. She became disgruntled and a standard Karen. Heard more about her lack of financial literacy and...

Esther has put together an awesome sports card and Yu-Gi-Oh shop. She has great service and is very knowledgeable. She's also one of the friendliest people I've ever met. Plan to spend longer than you need, because you'll want to stay and chat. Very kind as she even gave my kid, who was running around, a bottle of water, gratis. She had a few other items besides the cards, so she's wortha visit just to browse. And of course there is lots of free conversation. She also hosts Yu-Gi-Oh matches, but I have not...
