XPcollect — Local services in Manville

I found out about this place from a Facebook post on a Pokémon page. The owner was interested in Buying bulk cards and I had a ton I was interested in selling.

I decided to message the owner Jonathan and found out about rates as well as items he was interested in. A few days later he actually followed up with me to see if I had anymore question or if I was interested in coming in. At that point I had already started to find and go through all of our bulk cards.

Today I figured I would make the 1.5 hour drive. When I had got to the store Jonathan personally came in and helped me unload and sort through the rest of about 3 years worth of accumulated bulk cards.

After everything was said and done he gave me an incredible trade that was way more than I could have ever expected. Any time in the future I need to trade in bulk I will definitely go back I highly recommend this shop for trading in Good quality Bulk.

The store in general is so clean with so many products to choose from. Everything is neat and organized and every staff member I spoke to was incredibly helpful and polite. The prices are so much more reasonable compared to other shops I have visited closer to me.

Today was the release of the newest set Obsidian Flames and they were stocked up on booster boxes, blisters, ETB’s and single packs for cheaper than Game stop/Target and Walmarts prices!

During the time I was in the store at least 20 different people had come in to buy some packs, booster and Etb’s as well as sell/trade High end singles.

I was able to meet so many people involved in the Pokémon TCG community and chat with the owner and employees all while listing to the OG Pokémon songs from my childhood.

This is probably the only store I will make a drive for, I highly recommend visiting for all of your...

I just watched your YouTube video about the nonsense surrounding PE and how you guys held strong against greed and market pressure. I’m Canadian so I’m unable to come checkout your store in person or give you the business I wish I could but it’s nice to see stores that exists and the steps you take to continuously serve your community of collectors and lovers of the hobby the ability to buy the newest release without getting soaked. I live in the Toronto area of Ontario and the PE launch has been nothing but an awful and stressful time for a lot of people. I myself am new to the hobby and was lucky enough to stumble across a store in my neck of the woods with similar values as yourself so by my count so far in the whole industry there’s 2 places trying to effect positive change. I’m sure there’s more but it’s just so awesome to see that you didn’t cave to the greed and you spread the products through your community. It’s excellent to see and though I can’t buy any products I can at least leave this review. Maybe one day if I’m in the area I’ll make a special trip. Keep up the good work and the good business. It’s during times like these that people remember who helped them get the product for the right price and who soaked them due to the entitlement of owning a business and feeling “deserving of the prices they charge because (they’re a business after all) 💀” keep up the excellent work. Positive vibes and mucho respect from a Canadian...

I want to start by saying I’ve been to hundreds of game/TCG stores and have never experienced anything like this before. I have a lot of slabs that are only worth about five to $10, I was looking for a place that I could get even one or two dollars for and this place seemed like a lot of kids frequent it, which I think would be the perfect place to have lower priced slabs that are affordable… so anyway, at one point in our interaction, the guy at the counter starts smelling my cards, not like a quick sniff, like four or five deep drug dog type sniffs. He then informs me that they smell like “heavy smoke” and because of this, he wouldn’t be interested in any of them. He could’ve easily taken them out of the plastic bags that I had protecting all of them… I would like to say again that I did not go in expecting top dollar, he could’ve easily lowball me, but instead completely alienated the customer. Also, the smell he was referring to was probably due to the fact that I kept all of my slabs that day in a bag that had my weed in it (legal in Nj) But again, that’s what the plastic protective bags are for. The only reason I’m not giving a one star review is because they actually had a very good selection for very good prices, and it seems like a great place for kids to come collect trade and play. I ended up driving 10 minutes to another card shop that was happy to...
