Not anyone’s friend. Scalper pricing on Pokémon, will not be back. Check out Flipside or EG Comics for better prices.

If you're looking for Pokémon, this is your place! He also has great prices if you're seeking gold or silver. Mickey is a very nice man to deal with

Mickey has amassed one of the largest collections of sports cards in the capital region. He has hundreds of thousands of cards available on Beckett Marketplace in addition to this physical store. He also carries non-sports cards and memorabilia. Mickey is great with children and is always giving a good deal.

The owner is why card dealers have a bad reputation in this business. I have been trying to complete a 2025 Topps Update baseball set and accumulated over 400 duplicate cards. I went to the store last night to explain this and see what my options were to sell them and the owner was very interested. He told me 10 cents per card. Today I brought these cards and he completely denied that price and even lectured me on how many cards he buys at less than a penny per card. This is very dishonest business and when I asked why he told me differently last night and he said there was a customer there and didn't want to cause issues. I will never buy anything from this store. Just a few months ago he tried to sell me 2025 Topps Chrome blaster box for $60. These typically sell for $40 and he wouldn't budge on the price.
