Card Pop USA — Local services in Joliet

HONEST REVIEW! I went here on a recommendation from a family member. Let me just say.. wow!

I had gone to a couple of cards shops in the area and had not had the most amazing experiences, I honestly did not have high hopes for this shop when I first approached but oh boy was I wrong. They were soooo nice!!

I was immediately greeted and the employee there asked about not only what I was looking for but about me and my experience with the hobby. We had an amazing interaction and even the other employees there were super friendly and helpful, but then I witnessed it. I witnessed perhaps one of the most ... One of the most heart warming things I have seen in the whole TCG community happen at this shop... A gentleman came in, with crutches, he was a regular it seemed, and they greeted him warmly, but then he said "Hey guys! I just got out of surgery and came straight here to open up some packs with you guys to celebrate, I truly love being in this shop and it was the first place that came to my mind."

I was jaw dropped, it wasn't scripted, it wasn't planned. They didn't know I was a content creator "yet". It was natural, it was just so welcoming, so, so refreshing... So Nice. The gentleman proceeded to get some 151 booster bundles and open them up in the store, and he even asked me to open up a pack with him! Me, a complete stranger! (He pulled some good stuff btw!)

It was an awesome experience, I bought a bunch of cards and next time I am in town I will definitely be stopping by here first! Thanks again guys, thank you for making me feel so welcome, thank you for accepting me into your community regardless of who I was or how experienced I was with the hobby, see you...

I had such a great time visiting this Pokémon shop! From the moment I walked in, the staff was super friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Everyone there clearly loves what they do and it shows in how they treat their customers.

I especially want to give a big shoutout to Aleah—she was absolutely amazing! She helped me with my purchases and trade-ins, making the whole process smooth and easy. Aleah was patient, answered all my questions, and even gave me some great recommendations based on what I collect. It really felt like she went above and beyond to make sure I had the best experience possible.

If you're into Pokémon, whether you're a serious collector or just getting started, this is the place to go. Great selection, fair trade-in values, and a super friendly atmosphere. I’ll definitely be...

A safe haven for weary travelers. A place of refuge for those seeking asylum from the cruel and intimidating world. Upon first inspection of the exterior, you can clearly see a sign displaying a vibrant and vivacious logo "Card Pop", making it very clear to anyone that pride and honor are never in short supply at this establishment. Upon entering, you are thrust into a new world, one in which imagination is the cornerstone of life itself. I had the pleasure of meeting a firekeeper there named Haley. She, and the rest of the staff there, did not hesitate to remind us that the love and care of a single soul can tame the flame of hate lit by evil doers. To deny yourself a visit to this wonderful location is to deny yourself the sustenance of human affection. Human lives are finite, but Card...
