Hi5 Cards and Collectibles — Local services in Bloomington

If there is only one real card shop in town, I'm very happy that it's Hi 5! It's a local, small business and I do everything I can to help them just as they have helped me. I do most of my selling here and a good amount of buying. The level of of honesty, respect, and knowledge is easily a 10 out of 10. Jake is a super cool and friendly guy, and has helped me learn A LOT about collecting cards and whatnot. I'm bad with names so I can't remember all of them, but regardless who you are dealing with, expect professional, friendly, and very fair pricing. They also sell Funko pops. I'm easily at Hi5 at least once or twice a week. The atmosphere is very welcoming.Thank you guys very much for your wisdom, and again just the purest level of honesty when it comes to buying, selling, or just trying to get information on the vast hobby that is sports collecting.If you have part of or an entire collection you are looking to sell this is absolutely the place to do so. They are happy take all the time needed to make sure that you get a fair price. And as I stated before are super knowledgeable, so even if you have questions about the hobby, they are more than happy to help. Make some time to stop in, you won't regret it. I'm very glad that HI5 IS BLOOMINGTONS GO TO HOBBY SHOP!!! LONG...

Giving a 5 star because business is business and nothing was done wrong. Also the Initial fella I talked to was very welcoming and was going to look into pricing , someone came out and vitod that though .But I will say, expect about 30% of low end market price on your cards. They have the venue to sell, it takes them time to sell, and it saves you a lot of hassle but definitely didn't look up a lot of what I had , only picked ones they probably didn't have yet(completely understandable) and got value on those . Snagged at least 500$ worth of raw cards from me today for $170 ish. Didn't really peek at slabs because some of them weren't graded by PSA (other grading services ) which is also understandable, people want PSA, for a customer though, they have a great selection. If you plan to sell. Just laying it out for you. This is the experience you will most likely have .

I had also intended on bringing in a bigger selection, with some of my $500+ items ,but on a whim I just brought in some OK stuff to see what would happen, after that experience, I will probably put in the effort of...

Still lil puzzled how $55-60$ was pay out on 44-50 higher ranked cards sold at 40-50% of TCG price....but hey guess went better then last. Really the lower payouts is more TCG' fault for undercutting prices on the market. Not making this update to dog hi 5 any means! but TCG' in other words is a joke and making everyone look bad the buyer and seller...by controlling a market when they have no true actual valuation of items..I actually contacted t cg 2 weeks ago and no comment was returned on pricing. I think till tcg is off the predatory pricing I'm Gona collect leaves, hats, or marbles cause Pokemon has no gain with TCG' pricing in play, only loss. Again the money today did help and guy has good intention I believe so post is 'Not' directed at hi5 it's directed to TCG player aka as Now owned eBay cause more & more see how many, how new, and what sold for what I relieze it's prob how eBay bought TCG player out...
