Kaboom

★★★★★

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kaboom is seriously one of those places that just gets it. The atmosphere is fun welcoming and full of energy without ever feeling overwhelming. Whether you’re into Pokémon Magic The Gathering Lorcana collectibles or just looking for something new to get into there is always something worth checking out. The staff is knowledgeable helpful and actually takes the time to make you feel welcome instead of just trying to make a sale. You can tell there is a real community behind this place and that is what makes it stand out. Great selection great events great people and always something exciting happening. Definitely one of my favorite local spots and absolutely deserving of five stars.”

“I am on vacation in VA Beach and I visited Kaboom to see what MTG cards they had. I was not disappointed. They have a very wide selection of sealed products and singles. They have a huge selection of searchable, view store provided laptops, to search for the cards you need. The store manager was very friendly and helpful. My wife came in to drag me out of the store because I was taking so long. I will need to return alone so I may leave more money at the beach. I love the setup of this store and the inventory. If you can't find something there that you will enjoy, you clearly walked into the wrong type of store.”

“I love this place. The owners are very friendly, and super accommodating. They have a variety of set for both Pokemon and Magic, and they have accessories like sleeves and binders as well! Here, you are treated very well, and you have a variety of events to attend and specially made goody bags. I’m a regular, and this is my favorite go-to spot in Virginia Beach.”

“They have all sorts of card games there, but if you want singles they only have pokemon outside of 7-8 5k mtg cards. The main reason this place is not worth going to is the prices. Each pack and product is grossly overpriced. They were selling a pack of magic the gathering for 7.50. It wasn’t an old set it was a set that came out 1 and a half months ago and wasn’t the newest set. You can go to other card shops and pick up the same product for 5 dollars instead of 7.50. Another thing that was upsetting was the rampant use of AI. I know this is an opinion based thing, but all of the event pictures promoting services were very clearly AI generated. They also had binders for sale that had AI art on them. There was one of a shiny sylvion, but is was only shiny on its upper body, the face was not sylvion’s it looked like a generic animated cat face, and the ribbons kind of morphed in and out of existence. The environment was nice but also incredibly overpriced and employees were talking about buying them there for overpriced then go and sell it on the street and make profit. I don’t know if that’s just me, but that feels like an immoral thing to do with cardboard meant for children to play with. Do not come to this place if you are looking to buy cards. Go anywhere else, they will most likely have a far better price”
