If you are unsure about your items, please reach out (calling, email, FB message or text) ahead of time.

We prefer that your items be cleaned, odor free and organized. Items with their accessories bagged together, systems charged but NOT factory reset ahead of time (but updated if needed, especially XBox systems), battery compartments clean and rust/corrosion free, stuff like that. It speeds up the process so that we can get through it all quicker.

Remember, we stop buys 30 minutes PRIOR to close. We NO longer allow over night drop offs - bring in what we can process that day. We also reserve the right to ask you to bring your items back if we are backed up - first come, first served. Nights and weekends can be busy, so bring in earlier in the day or week if possible.
We are here Tuesdays - Fridays 10-8 and Saturdays/Sundays 10-5.

Stop in to see what else is new, as we are putting new items DAILY!!

We have got a bunch of new Magic the Gathering cards in lately!!! The binders are rather full with all sorts of new cards, as is the showcase! Stop in to find some of those cards that your deck is missing. We may have slightly changed up how they are sorted in the binders, but the influx of new product should more than make up for it.
