Memory Lane Collectibles — Local services in Central City

This place is great! The owner is a great dude I've had the pleasure of knowing and doing business with for several years now. He's one of the most fair, most generous dudes and shop owners I've ever come across. If you're looking for something and trading things in, he'll work with you. I've always felt that he genuinely seeks to do his best to make sure people leave feeling better than they did when they entered. Not only that, but his inventory is some of the best I've ever come across and he actually KNOWS what he has. So many shops have hundreds of thousands of cards with no idea of what they have, but he keeps up on everything he and can tell you after a simple search of his inventory system. His prices are fair and I've never felt ripped off coming here. If anything, like I said, I've always felt like he's worked with me as best he could on our trades.

His workers are great people that also care about the job. The atmosphere is genuinely chill and comfortable! While I've admittedly never sat and played at the tables here, I always see people playing and seeming to have a genuinely good time. It's also really cool to see that he sells figures (even if they aren't necessarily my thing), video games, movies, all kinds of stuff! His video game inventory is all a bit retro but in the best way possible even if it makes me feel like an old man calling them retro.

Finally, just an example of his genuine care for his work and customers, the other day I went in for a specific card I needed for a cEDH deck of mine, Shuko, but after talking with the worker there it seemed they didn't have any. The next day the owner and I talked and he had went out of his way to go to his extra storage, look for, find, and bring in extra copies of the card because he knew he had people wanting them! That's a lot of extra work for a single $10 card, but it's that display of always going the extra mile that continously proves to me how great of a shop, business owner, and person Memory Lane and the owner are.

Seriously, I cannot recommend this...

I have lived in many areas and visited multiple collectable shops and I can say this is easily one of the best I have been to. The selection is incredible and the owner has a deep knowledge of the collectable industry. If there is something you want he will have a means or connection to get it. I have asked for packs from obscure lesser known card games like Dragonball Super to most recently Battle Spirts Saga, they were able to help me with both! The prices are also competitive and most importantly fair, anyone who has collected and dealt with collectors knows that deals/prices that are fair for both parties is a rare occurrence, but is a common occurrence here. Truthfully I am thankful to have a shop like this in our community and thankful the shop supports are community. Also I can't guarantee you'll get great pulls from packs, but man have I seen some insane pulls! Can not...

This place is great. There are various stores across the Western KY area, but none of them are as clear and organized with their inventory as this one. It has a lot of different stuff to buy, from games, to figures, to Funko Pops, to a ton of different TCG cards and packs. Honestly, there are even weird or obscure TCG's I've found there that I haven't found even in bigger cities. The owner is super nice and more than happy to negotiate and ensure he gives a fair price. His employees are great too. I'm glad to have him in the area and I feel like my money is well-spent and not going to some heartless corporation when I buy...
