US Card Stores

[CardCookie13]

Hey guys,
Heading to the US in April, lucky enough to be catching a few end of season games and the start of the finals.
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for any card stores to visit while over there. Preferred Basketball is scheduled to come out while I'm there and id love to break some boxes on release day.
Ill be in Los Angeles, Vegas, Washington and New York during the trip, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

How was the one in Vegas? Worth a look?

Yeah def worth a look, boxes are reasonably priced, singles are pricey however. But they do bargain with you.

are you talking about the one on freemont street? Ultimate Sports cards? I went there and got afew packs. that was the only card shop I went to. I did buy some cheap blaster boxes in Kmart and Modell's sporting goods stores in New York.

Bingo. Walmart also stocks boxes and packs.

In New York, you will find a card shop near the CBD, all the other ones are not in Manhatten so you may have to travel into some neighbourhoods that you are not comfortable with.

LA has the most card shops in my opinion, they are dotted throughout the suburbs. Stay away from the Beverly Hills ones as their prices are off the charts, you definitely should visit Burbank, they have a handful of very big shops with lots of singles. But if you want boxes, you may as well buy them online and get them delivered to your hotel if you are staying there for a while.
