Hot Corner 315 — Local services in City of Auburn

For being out of town i always check out TCG related stores in the area.

Typically the biggest red flag is seeing a LOT of Pokemon sealed product inventory. Once you see the prices you’ll understand why they have a lot of inventory.

I understand the market for Pokemon is crazy. I understand that shops like this don’t sell at MSRP. With that said if you compare their prices with TCGplayer you’ll notice that the prices are way over secondary market value. This includes sealed, raw and graded prices.

Yes they have celebrations in its current hype. Yes they have SPC and 151 ETBs. Hot stuff for very high prices. $20 dollar 151 booster packs. Singles and graded slabs were very limited but they did have some.

My kids were a bit disappointed by the prices. We go to a lot of stores in our home area and also in this area when we visit and this store gave off major scalper vibes.

I understand margins are tough in this market but i guess when you have a lot of inventory you can set your own market value?

I read all the reviews before leaving this one and i typically don’t like to leave reviews. I was shocked to see reviews commenting on the “great prices”.

I’m not going to name other shops that are “better” as the owner commented on a review accusing them of being a competitor. That’s not me. I’m just a former 315 resident looking for Pokemon to keep my 6, 11 and 12 yr olds happy

This Noah guy I’m sure is very nice and knowledgeable as the staff were kind and respectful to me and my kids but this shop won’t be getting...

I dropped in today at the advice of a buddy and was not disappointed. I was immediately greeted by Noah and his wife, but what I liked most was that they allow to explore on your own with no hassle.The atmosphere is great, clean and very organized! They have something for everyone and for my personal taste, I was in heaven with vintage sportscards. I was so glad I stopped in as I can see this shop being on my short list of places to help me support my card collecting obsession. See...

Noah is very helpful and educated in the card market. There’s always great products and cards available. A great spot to visit and pick up some very nice cards for any collection. The prices of the cards are the best I’ve seen. There are always deals on cards, especially when you buy in bulk. Great card store, and Noah is a great guy. I recommend any sports fan or collector to visit and pop in. Never know...
