What to know about Ohio card shops

Card shops across Ohio with a storefront you can walk into, from Cleveland, Akron and Youngstown to Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton, Toledo and the river towns of southeast Ohio. Each listing says what the shop carries, based on what the shop publishes itself.

Ohio's shops are spread across its metros rather than packed into one. Greater Cincinnati has a long list, from Blue Ash and Madeira to the west side, and Card Stocks has stores in Blue Ash, near Eastgate, in Liberty Township and at Austin Landing in Miamisburg. Columbus has TCG stores on High Street and Bethel Road, and The Guardtower has stores in Hilliard and on the east side.

In the northeast, the Cleveland suburbs, Akron and Canton each have a run of sports card and game shops. Pearl Road in Brunswick has two, and two more sit side by side on Oakwood Drive in Cuyahoga Falls. Youngstown and Boardman have several sports card shops of their own.

Toledo anchors the northwest, and Jumbo's Sports Collectibles has stores in Findlay and Lima. The Dayton area has shops in Centerville, Kettering, Beavercreek and Fairborn. In southeast Ohio, collectors in Athens, Marietta, Chillicothe and Portsmouth have local shops that serve the surrounding counties.

Hours change, so call ahead before you drive. Bring the cards you want to sell or trade, and scan them with Cards AI first so you know recent sold prices and a projected grade before you negotiate.
