Definitely a 10/10 card shop in terms of friendly and helpful staff. Came across by accident after not realizing there was an actual card shop nearby, rather than a game shop selling cards, comics, games, minis, etc. Whether packed of empty, staff has been helpful in looking for packs or boxes, and in helping know when drops may happen, whether a pre-order is available or not, or if it's first come first serve. Staff is genuinely excited when rares get pulled from packs they sell, and helpful with trade-ins and grading. My daughter has a birthday coming up and the entire staff has been helpful in me getting packs, boxes, tins, so she can have more Pokemon cards to open, as she has entered that collecting phase and loves to open packs with me. I collect Union Arena and One Piece, and the staff is very helpful letting me know when they get some in or new drops so I can try to get a box. Imposed limits on some boxes are well deserved, and I can appreciate the shop doesn't let scalpers come in and buy out everything. Interactions with children interactions with children in the shop have been wholesome and helpful, especially when they're questioning about cards alone without the parent guiding them in the questions. Every member of the staff I have seen when I've gone is a 10/10 in my book. Going above and beyond what may be required to run a card shop, as well as showing genuine interest in the collections of others, as well as their own collections they like to keep off...
Read moreThis place is the absolute best! I went in to sell my old Pokémon stuff from when I was a kid. Another shop offered me basically nothing for things I knew had some value. The Cheerful TCG guys gave me a way better price for it, what it was actually valued! Took that money and got into Disney’s Lorcana, which they have the best selection of anywhere around, hands down! Jared and Jacob are so great. Customer service through the roof! Every customer is treated with respect and fairly! You will never feel cheated or slighted in here! They are amazing with kids too! Each kid that comes in is treated with kindness and respect. They make sure kids know the value of their money and walk away with something they can be happy with! They are great for parents too, who may be lost with the ins and outs of a card game. They will help educate and “translate” so the parents feel just as comfortable as the kids. I’m in the shop at least twice a week. Every time is a wonderful experience whether I’m in there for a quick pack, or a causal game of Lorcana. Can’t wait to actually get to play in one of their weekly tournaments! The community the Cheerful TCG guys have cultivated is amazing and just speaks volumes to the business they operate, and the...
Read moreLet me first start by saying, Jacob and Jared have been loving members of the upstate community for YEARS before starting this store. I have known them both as a customer and a friend. They are the most kind hearted and honest store owners I know in the tcg market. They are honest, fair and always go the extra mile. If you have a collection you no longer want They will give you the best value. If you need a card authenticated, they will show you how to tell fake from real. They do regular community outreach to support the community and I've been on the receiving end of their hospitality and loyalty to the community many times. If you need cards they go above and beyond to help you collection grow and they don't look at you as a customer. You are a friend and they ALWAYS look into the future for repeat interactions and business. I've been to 48 states and this is STILL my only go to store for ALL of tcg, player and...
