“I had an excellent time visiting their store. The owner/staff was very kind to chat with me about current baseball. I found the exact card I was looking for. They have a wide selection of great athletes... including many Chicago favorites. I was amazed at their jersey displays. Lastly I'll mention the authenticated Babe Ruth signed baseball. Go see it before it's gone!! They have great jersey packs as well. Support local business ?”
“This has been my longtime favorite LCS, but Marc went above and beyond recently when he helped organize a week of educational programming for high school students, including a loan of some Roman coins for the week. I am very thankful for his help and will be a customer for life. You should be too, go visit this awesome shop!!”
“I had several items that I thought were antiques, but actually were "collectables". The staff at Oakton were great. They took their time looking at my "treasures" but did not rush anything! They held my stash for another day so their partner who specialized in the swords I brought in could really examine them more closely. While I did not come away with the ton of money I envisioned, I did leave satisfied because of the manner in which these guys did business: highly recommended by a good friend, as well as what I'd read online. I would not hesitate to recommend Oakton Coins & Collectibles. They're honest and reliable.”
“Best shop in the state of Illinois. Nick, James, Steve, Jon and Caleb are a pleasure to do business with. As long as they're in business I will continue to keep going back. 5 STAR SERVICE. Still stand by this statement. Continue to be the best card shop in the Chicagoland area.”
“This place was amazing. It was so good that I wanted it to rate it infinite amount of stars. He gives the best discounts, tons of model options to choose and some of the best model planes that I have ever seen. The plane models were preassembled and such in good shape and quality. If this was your first time here, he will ask you if you gotten a safety card from a flight. Highly recommended! Go to this shop in your free time. This place is the best and now my new happy place.”
“Rich's collectibles has a wide selection of many different collectibles and the owner is very friendly too. It's the perfect spot to find gifts for yourself or others at a great deal! Prices are very fair! Will be back again!”
“Great assortment of tiny furniture and houses for those interested in miniature dollhouse building. Plus other crafts, ink fir stamping, make your one cards, construction paper, form board, markers , pencils, tools, and glitters. They are working through the warehouse in the back to bring out more. This this a great place to get things for your STEAM/STEM workrooms.Tons of parking but this not a store front store anymore unfortunately, it is a warehouse. It has a small sign that you can easily drive right by and gray steel door. Hours are posted. This storr is really worth your trip. If you dont see what you want just ask.”
“Knights Edge is phenomenal! Not only are there many stellar pieces to look at, but Norman and Miriam go above and beyond by making this store an immersive experience. They were also very kind and helpful and answered all our questions (since we were first time purchasers).Again, I highly highly highly recommend this store, especially if you want to buy unique products/gifts and have fun while doing it!”
“This place is awesome! It is the best hidden secret of a bead store in Chicago for gems and other beads. Truly gorgeous products (all kinds of real gemstones that I wanted to buy them all) and Anna and Diana are lovely people who are so helpful and kind. Glad to support this woman owned business. Love love love their new space and look forward to going back! This special shop should not be missed!”
“a great neighborhood jewel of a store. jane has loads of yarns, beautiful canvases and runs fun classes. always helpful employees (thanks, deb!) and the finishing on every project i've done has been perfect. a sweet spot to check out new needlepoint finds.”
“Where to start with Magic Inc. One word, GREAT!!!I love magic, but it's hard and expensive and takes skills, right. Well, yeah. (full disclosure, I am a beginner with magic, and this is the second magic store I have been to, for what it is worth...)But, if you are in Chicago and want to dip your toes into this skill, magic, you have to go to Magic Inc. If I lived nearby, I would be a regular just to hang out and learn from the staff and clients.Even if you just want to go to an incredibly awesome store, head to Magic Inc. No intimidation here what so ever!Friendly and professional staff that just happen to be magicians! Wow.Just walk in, say you want to learn a little about magic, and you will see some amazing things that you just might walk out with. I went in for two decks of cards and left with a great 'how to' book and two other tricks that I, a beginning magician, could do (at least my great neices think so...)Thanks, Pedro, for making my visit incredible! Can't wait to get back for another visit - Magic Inc. is, well, magical!!!”
“I write this review on the 1 year anniversary of the shop's opening. The brothers that run the store set up a welcoming atmosphere for guests, they are just good conversationalists. Over my many trips to The Horror House, I have picked up monster related art, t-shirts, patches, figures and even coffee.And the coffee and all the other stuff, is so so good. They cover all the eras of horror from classic Universal Monsters, to modern horror and they cover all the genres from horror comedies to slashers.Here is my youtube review on this excellent spot youtube.com/live/80iz3Wa…”
“Absolutely love this shop! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, everything is beautifully organized and fairly easy to reach and see. I appreciated that they paid attention to what I was getting so they could direct me on where to find similar types of thread. I'm still learning a lot, and I learn something new every time I go!”
“This was a great end to a tragic loss my husband passed a few months ago and he had gold coins I thought weren't worth very much well I was mistaken to my surprise”
“This is a great spot if you are interested in coin collecting. We had coins to sell and Lucas helped us both times we were in the store. He is very knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and kind. He shares information and offers fair prices. We will be back.”
“I did a layaway on a doll I've been wanting for a while that's so hard to find. She was shipped with lots of protective packaging, and was in her box perfectly NRFB. They were also really nice on the phone. Thank you guys so much! Will be ordering more from you guys.”
“Been all over the Chicagoland area in and out of sports cards/memorabilia shops throughout the years. I'll say Elite Cards is top of the line. When I say "top of the line", I mean both Ronnie & Gary buy-sell-trade with integrity. Wealth of knowledge in the industry. It's not just about making a "sale" with these guys, they're in it because they love what they do! A lot of shops I've been too, I've always picked up on the used car salesman vibe but not here. Straight shooters, no sugar coating, and or over inflating value on products they have. Simply tell them what you're trying to accomplish and they'll help you get there!Thanks guys!”
“My husband and i sort of wandered in (i didn't think it was open since you can't tell from the street) but we got buzzed in and WOW was it worth it, an amazing collection, some of which my husband recognized from his childhood with plenty of toys and models with all sorts of themes. GREAT stock of Horror stuff and a super friendly lady at the counter. We will absolutely be back, this place is a hidden gem and well worth the trip on a rainy Satuday afternoon.”
“We went to Archie's to see if they were interested in a variety of items we wanted to sell. The entire experience was excellent and conducted with clarity, great communication, and professionalism. Their offers were fair, and they explained why certain things were not valued as we may have expected. We felt very comfortable there and recommend it others looking for their services.”
“Five stars!My 8 year old son is a sports fan, and while on a trip to Chicago his one request was to find cool new sports cards.The experience at Tim’s lived up to all expectations, and Tim himself patiently helped Jake find the perfect cards. Here’s to a wonderful small business, and making our day in Chicago very special! (Tim - he got Justin Fields in the pack you recommended!!!). ?Jake and Lindsay Odvody”
“Incredible shop, something for every level collector. You will not leave empty handed. The clerk it knowledgeable and willing to advise if needed. If your looking for something extremely specific I would call first a few days before so he can set it aside, at times they are busy. And cannot hunt the very rare and obscure. None the less I love the shop but no longer live in the state.”
“Awesome toy and collectibles store near Wrigley Field. If you're ever in the area or going to a game, you gotta stop in and check this place out. Tons of action figures, Funko pops, collectibles and more. Super friendly guy behind the counter who took great care of me. This place maximizes every inch of their store and wastes no space at all. Could have spent a lot of time combing thru everything.”
“great place to buy toys reminds me of old kb toys from back in the 90's and 2000's i bought a plush bulldog and a plush basset hound and some 1/24th scale diecasts from b zone toys”
“From wall to wall, there are great finds in every aisle!!! Puzzles, trinkets, games, kites, Legos, Pokémon, and so much more. They even have travel sized games that are great in the car or for out of town adventures!Rob and the team were so awesome (I wish I could remember the other gentleman's name). I can't thank you enough for your help with the remote control car battery port!!!!”
“Grant is awesome! There are tons of comics and he knew exactly what boxes to look for when you ask him what you are looking for. Be prepared to stay for more than an hour and bring your money. It's worth the trip!”
“Hello there my daughter draws real good and I wanted to surprise her and get her a art supplies the whole set looked at plenty of stores and nothing then went to Michaels and that was it so much stuff omg loved it found everything right there and more..”
“I stopped in Michael's this evening to get some supplies for a Halloween party. The woman who helped me at the register was the one of the KINDEST HUMANBEINGS I HAVE MET. She had a goofy sense of humor, was incredibly helpful, and truly MADE MY DAY. I hope she reads this, thank you for being you, I hope the Boston Orioles have fantastic season next year!”

“Nice store to visit, the guys at the front desk were very friendly and open to questions. Excited to hear they will be moving to a new location that'll be much bigger! And it'll only be a couple mins away. If you get a chance to, come and drop by this shop and support them!”
