“I've had nothing but great experiences with the fellas from Chicagoland Sports Cards. Very polite, fair prices, and a great inventory to choose from. I pulled a sick Dwayne Wade Gold Vinyl Auto #'d 1 of 1 and didn't have to break the bank to do so.
They also have a great account on WhatNot as well (Chicagolandbreaks).
10/10 would recommend,

“The guys at Route 12 Artic are great. They've made a few repairs on my older Artic wheeler for me on a couple of different occasions. Each time they have been knowledgeable, helpful and reliable. They are my first choice for repairs.”
“I obtained a pair of used spikes and found that the "nails" were uneven; I called Xtra Mile Running and spoke to the owner, Chris. He told me to bring them in and replaced the defective spike nails for free, even though I was willing to pay for them. It was very kind of him. I intend to purchase running shoes for my child, in future, from him.”
“They were extremely patient as we tried on at least 15 pairs of shoes and were very knowledgeable about the different types of rackets. Also appreciate how they weren’t just trying to make money; they told us not to get some things because it was unreasonably expensive for our level :)”
“I have had the pleasure of visiting 847RC several times over the past month or so and I had to share what a special place the team over there have curated. When I first began my running journey in 2008 there were only proper running stores in Downtown Chicago where I could get a proper fitting for my stride. Those days are so long gone thanks to 847RC! ??♀️Now, I can simply call upon my friends down the street at 847 to help me feel my best while I pound the pavement. I know exactly where to go when I need to get fitted, vent about my tight IT bands, stock up on goo gels, and be a part of a running community that truly treats me like family every time I walk (or run ?) in the door. Not to mention, they carry all the high-performing gear brands at friendly prices for those of us who know that what you wear and how you feel on your runs make all the difference!Whether you’re just getting started on the path or are a seasoned Ultra runner, 847 has your back (and feet!). Stop in and experience the shop for yourself today! Lake County is so lucky to have you, 847RC! Thank you! ??♀️”
“The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Dane did a great job walking me through the Fleet Feet foot scan and a number of shoe options based on my current training needs.”

1540 E Golf Rd, Schaumburg“Just like any other TJ Maxx, if you have time to hunt and search, you may find good deals. Not too of the line but good quality, on line is always a better variety”
“Shopping here is always a breeze! The owner Mark is always ready to help, and it's an easy process to get fitted for the right shoe! Plus I love shopping at a small business knowing my money is staying in the community! Highly recommend Runner's High 'N Tri for walkers, runners, and anything in between!”
“new look, unbelievable service mike the manager and Devin ( i believe that’s his name ) were incredible .. Devin is the reason i came back 3 times in one month ! just incredible customer service all around.”
“If you're in the market for any home fitness equipment, you owe it to yourself to contact Jonathan at Top Fitness (Vernon Hills)! I had the absolute best experience working with Jonathan and ultimately purchased a new Precor elliptical. Jonathan was incredibly patient and courteous - I asked sooooo many questions about the machine features, costs, warranties, support, etc. He answered all of them quickly and thoroughly without pressuring me into any decisions - just providing me with information I needed to make the best decision for me. I was initially planning to fix my existing elliptical, but with zero pressure from Jonathan, I very excitedly chose to buy a very good new one! Couldn't be more happy and appreciative of Jonathan's help.”
“I had a great experience, as always, at Road Runner Kildeer yesterday. Demetrice (I think I spelled it correctly) was amazing, patient and helpful. I tried on a bunch of shoes to get the right fit and replacement for my old shoes. I just love that the staff here is so helpful and friendly. Thanks, Road Runner!”
“I love this place! I visited to restring, and the explanation of the differences in strings was easy to understand, and he also gave me suggestions that matched my play style!
It was a great experience!”
“We bought a new racket for our daughter yesterday. In crunch of time they got the racket ready to go within an hour. Excellent customer service. One stop shop for all professional tennis. Owner and her staff will go above snd beyond to meet your needs. Very impressed. Reasonable rates and large variety of options. Thank you for your service.”

20393 N Rand Rd, Kildeer“I have found so many great deals and bargains on really expensive name brand clothing. I got Free People sweaters that retail for $168.00, and we're on sale at FP for $80.00. I was able to get them for $39.00 here. My best recommendation is to check out what they have online. Go to the store and just go through the racks. You'll find amazing deals on just about everything. The store was clean and organized. Friendly customer service. There is plenty of parking, including handicap and charging stations.”
“It’s a bit of a drive for me but worth it. I contemplated saving money by ordering online but… they always make sure the fit is right for the style /age needed on dance shoes. Prices are very reasonable for quality products. Every time I leave I’m always glad I stopped in and feel confident in my purchases!”
“Hands down some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet in this line of work. Amazing pros and home to the legendary Racket man. Guaranteed to walk out happier than when you walk in. Fresh hot coffee always brewing and the facility is spotless and clean.”
“Rainbo is the best place in Chicagoland for all things skating. Their expertise in skates are second to none. I highly recommend you call and make an appointment if you need any maintenance or need to order skates. They are extremely busy because of the high caliber of service, and you may not be able to "drop in"”
“This is the third year I have purchased a custom t-shirt order through The Cheer Shoppe. Caroline's communication was top notch and their product never disappoints. I highly recommend if you are looking to secure a large order. I will continue to order with their business every year.”
“My daughter plays catcher on a travel softball team and we were in the market for her own gear. It was nice to go into a store and get an informative explanation of the product. We also were in the market for a new bat and it was nice to be able to try out a few before purchasing. They also have competitive prices. This is the place we will go from now own for any equipment needs”
“I found Rally House by accident, but this is my second visit to this wonderfull sports store! The most amazing thing is that they have so many different styles and sizes...and all in inventory! Magnets, flags, T shirts, sweatshirt, pants, coats... for all the Chicago pro teams, major universities, and even the Green Bay Packers! When ever I am in the Chicago area, I skip all the tourist traps or airport shops and go straight to Rally. (they also have a bunch of kids sizes as well!)”
“Excellent. Got skates sharpened and picked up lace tightening hook. Staff was busy but attended my request within 2 minutes. They gave an accurate estimate of when my sharpened skate blades would be ready. I can back in about two hours and they were indeed ready. Very inexpensive rate for the sharpening.”
“Greatest source of sports clothing and attire for the local fan in all of Us. Shop no other!Alex and Staff are Courteous, Attentive and Always helpful and knowledgeable. The very best in products and selection.”
“Today is stop by rei around 1 pm to try some gym shoes their and the guy in shoes department was really helpful and professional and really nice also we got greeted on our way out by a lady she was also really nice is hard to find nice people now days so Rei should be appreciative to their profesonalism and good customer service.”
“Super knowledgeable and cared about running and ensuring we got the correct running shoes. Took a look at my sons balance and stride and listened to his concerns and picked out the shoes he should try. The knowledge itself was 5 stars, but the sincerity and friendly attitude made this a great place and a great small business to support. We were visiting, but if they were in Virginia I would never go anywhere else.”
“Ordered special embroided hats and Anthony and Nikki went above and beyond to help is with our needs. The hats turned out amazing to say the least and we will definitely be returning to order more in the future!! I HIGHLY recommend this location!!”
“Better than Bass Pro.Easily the greatest fishing store around. Dare I say it... better than Bass Pro Shops. While it may look unassuming from the outside, it probably has more and better options than BPS. Owner is also a super nice and extremely knowledgeable guy. Not at all pushy-- helped me through a lot of questions as I am getting into a new kind of fishing and set me up real nicely. Definitely coming back often.”
“As always friendly workers! They always greet you at the entrance and make sure you find what you’re looking for. Always a positive vibe in the store and it’s so organized! Makes it easy for you to find what you are looking for.”
“The quality is fantastic. I ordered a size larger than I normally wear and it fits fine. My color choice was out of stock and ARO kept me informed about the timeline for a new batch of shirts. Highly recommended!”
“Best ski shop in Chicago. Artur, Janusz, Ben and the rest of the staff provided exceptional service. Their expertise and knowledge is second to none, they have been involved in skiing their entire livelihood. Selection and pricing is great. If you need any of ski equipment, fitting or professional tuning/waxing done this is the place to go for sure, highly recommend!”
“Bought the copa pure .1’s yesterday for clearance and accidentally bought the wrong size (one full size up). Even though there is a no return policy on clearance cleats, the nice lady at the store allowed me to exchange the cleats for a size down. Very happy with my purchase. Everyone should be confident in purchasing at this shop.”
