Cowabunga Games and Collectibles — Local services in Cross Lanes

I stopped in with some of my collection duplicates to sell them, or really to just end up with some more product for my children and myself to rip. I understand everyone uses different sites for market and yada yada, but the txt market value of my collection was an honest 580$, i say honest because some of the cards weren’t NM, and were marked as such. Moving forward the offered me only 100$ for the entire set, claiming that every card was damaged quality (mind you when i rip, it’s straight to the penny sleeve, no bad binder behavior here), claiming that my number was totally inaccurate and that my collection wasn’t worth what I know it is. As stated, the cards that weren’t NM were marked as such, and were prior to him checking out the list. Now either 1 or two things happened, either I’m totally nlind, even thiugh the docs say I have 20/20, or he was trying to get over on me so he could make an extra dollar. And by my appearance I’m assuming he thought i didn’t know what I had. That aside his shop is pretty seedy, his selection of sealed product is non existent, and most all of the product he was was in terrible shape. Not tryna to rag on him by any means. Because I get people have to make money in business, however scamming people, and trying to take advantage of the less knowledgeable isn’t right either! So don’t go here unless you look like a professional, and be ready to purchase extremely used things! Everhthing was at market value as well, which I understand, but if he’s buying for roughly 20% his profits are out of this world. It’s a small community with the TCG here in wv. So I’d love to think people took care of one another so we can all continue to have fun. But yet the people like this shoo that make me lose hope in the hobby at all. Do your customers better!!!! Some of us participate in the hobby as a get away, mini vacation. And what a day spoiler this has been. I never bought or sold to this store, and never plan to. Just wanted to let everyone know if they’re practices here before...

Good place especially for Pokemon singles, the owner uses TCG player for prices so it is a fair market price without having to deal with the hassle of the internet. It could be hard to spot but overall a great place to shop, will be visiting there for all my Pokemon Card single needs!

Bring cash as it is a small business so an extra charge is assessed for...

This place was and is awesome been there twice now. The owner is always super helpful and very nice. Him and his son make you feel like a kid again. Besides the great atmosphere and all the retro and current gen games they have one up arcade games you can play for free. You owe it to yourself to...
