Great store. Pricing was very fair. I was shocked to find this place in downtown Chicago and the pricing to be as fair as it was. The staff took time with everyone. Even new people collecting Pokemon.
I would highly recommend this store. It prompted me to write a review which I don’t normally do.

Great community overall! The staff and One Piece players helped me get my start as a new player. They genuinely try to support the community by hosting many tcg locals, getting product, and encouraging everyone to pull sick cards. They are hilarious too.
