• Pokémon

  Pokémon is unusual in carrying three quite different customers at once: players who need singles for a deck, collectors chasing specific art and sets, and parents buying packs for a nine-year-old.

• Magic: The Gathering

  Magic has the oldest and most sophisticated secondary market of any trading card game, which means a Magic shop is judged largely on its singles operation.

• Comics

  Plenty of card shops carry comics, and plenty of comic shops carry cards — the two hobbies share a customer, a supply chain, and a grading culture.

• Sports cards

  Sports cards covers everything from a 1950s baseball common to a numbered rookie patch autograph pulled last week.

  668 verified shops · 49 states

• One Piece

  The One Piece Card Game is recent enough that shop support is genuinely uneven: some shops have built a real local scene around it, and others have a shelf of product and no players.

• Yu-Gi-Oh!

  Yu-Gi-Oh! is a heavily competitive game with a fast-moving banlist, which makes the local scene matter more than the shelf.

• Vintage

  Vintage generally means pre-1980 in sports and pre-2000 in trading card games, though no definition is universal and shops use the word loosely.

• Disney Lorcana

  Disney Lorcana draws an unusually mixed crowd: competitive card game players, Disney collectors who do not play at all, and families.

  353 verified shops · 47 states

• Grading

  Shops in this category submit cards to third-party grading companies on your behalf, usually at bulk rates you could not access individually.

  289 verified shops · 45 states

• Baseball

  Baseball is the deepest category in the hobby by volume and by history, which cuts both ways: there is more genuinely interesting material than in any other sport, and there is also more effectively worthless overproduced cardboard than in any other sport.

• Football

  Football collecting is dominated by rookie cards, which makes it the most seasonal category in the hobby: interest and prices move with the draft, the season, and one player's Sunday.

  222 verified shops · 41 states

• Basketball

  Basketball has the hobby's sharpest concentration of value in a small number of players and a small number of parallels, which makes accurate pricing harder than it looks and makes shop knowledge worth more.
