What collectors say
★★★★★
“Stopped by today and had a great experience. The shop has a really strong selection, especially if you’re into Pokémon cards, and you can tell right away it’s run by people who actually care about the hobby. The layout is clean, easy to browse, and there’s always something interesting to look at, whether you’re hunting singles or just checking out what’s in the cases. What stood out most was the atmosphere. It feels welcoming, not stiff or awkward like some card shops can be. You can actually take your time, look around, and enjoy it without feeling rushed. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly into what they’re doing, which goes a long way. I ended up picking up a Lapras card, which made the trip even more awesome. Stuff like that, along with little moments like the playful displays, adds personality to the place and makes it feel less like just another store and more like somewhere you actually want to come back to. Overall, really solid spot. Whether you’re a serious collector or just getting back into it, it’s worth checking out. Definitely coming back.”

“I cannot express how fair, honest, and fun the experience I had at the store was. I am not an avid collector, I am not super knowledgeable, but Sterling was amazing. He was kind, patient, and I truly would not shop anywhere else for pokemon cards. I drove an hour to get here and I would’ve driven more had I know how great the experience and product would be. Go with confidence”
★★★★★
“Neat store. The dude that works the front counter is the coolest. I love how they have a great inventory of new and vintage. Most stores are empty from "poke card scalpers". You can always count on your Poke Plug to have stock!”
★★
“Going to double up on the other recent review of the cashier having extremely dirty hands . I also came to evaluate card value and he was sifting through some pretty valuable cards with really dirty hands (they were practically black). The value in which was offered back to me was probably/roughly 30% of the cards actual worth so I took a pass. All the singles they sell are priced pretty much accordingly with pricecharting (usually a dollar or two over) so it's not like you're getting any crazy deals or anything, just nice if you care to see/inspect something in person before purchasing. So yeah I'd take a pass on selling any singles here as the value just clearly isn't there & the whole hands situation doesn't just seem like a one time thing clearly because other reviews have mentioned the same. They don't buy any bulk or have interest taking in cards sub $10/15 either (if they did you'd probably get $1/2 for them). If you're itching to buy some singles or just to open anything at all sure it's a chill place to stop in every once in a while and look through.”
