Located underneath the giant 'Haven' sign near the Anaheim Metro station in downtown Long Beach,…read moreNerdy Related is a retail shop, open 6 days a week, focusing on trading card games (TCGs). I had a chance to stop-in, chat with the proprietors, and make purchase: found the entire experience to be really heartening. Nerdy Related just opened earlier this year, with their grand opening sign promoting role playing and trading card games. It wasn't too busy when I stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon, so had a chance to talk to the proprietors about how things were going. They are both from the Long Beach area, and were very excited about their new venture. It's small but super bright inside, with product not overwhelming the space. There is an area in the front for a couple of folding tables/chairs where community card gatherings/tournaments are meant to be hosted. I joked about being so close to a dispensary, and they mentioned that they considered it a positive, with curious folks stopping in. Positivity just permeated throughout the store, and I couldn't help but have it soak in. Was definitely in a better mood leaving than when coming in. As often happens, great customer interaction/service resulted in more purchases. Definitely spent a bit more than original intention, but they had a (expensive) Pokemon set that I've not been able to find anywhere else, and will be a future birthday gift. For myself, I bought a Union Arena card set with characters from Demon Slayer.... there is one for Solo Leveling as well, but was told that it's very hard to keep that in stock. They get their product from a distributor, so prices will be higher than directly from the manufacturer or from a big box store. But availability is a huge factor (TCGs like One Piece, Pokemon are super popular right now with certain sets just not available without big markups), so thought the pricing was very fair. And I loved the shopping bags that came with the purchase: with an expensive looking wax seal clearly branding where the purchase came from. There are binders with loose Pokemon cards for sale, so can spend time looking through those. They mentioned that they don't have a searchable online catalog yet, but hope to do so at some point in the future. Much thought has been put into the opening. It's the kinda place that I would imagine the guys from The Big Bang Theory would hang out: having discussions with fellow geeks and nerds about all things 'nerdy'...cause...you know...it's in the name.

I saw this place on TikTok a few weeks ago, and on my commute home I realized I was actually…read morepassing the same street, so I decided to stop in. There was a group already playing, and the woman at the register who I'm guessing might be the owner was incredibly welcoming and helpful. I told her I basically know nothing about magic the gathering, and she immediately started showing me her own deck and explaining a few things about the game. She also let me know about the days they host games so new people can come in and play. The group that was there was super friendly too they told me when they usually come in and said they'd be happy to help me learn. Overall it was such a great experience. Everyone was really welcoming, and it made trying something totally new feel easy. I'm honestly excited to go back and play magic the gathering for the first time.

No snarky looks, eye rolls or cold shoulders here. The barrier for entry to reading comics is already intimidating as is what with all the crazy intertwining, interconnecting continuities and universes, so Ryan and the crew understand the importance of facilitating a welcoming community right from when you step through the door. Everyone here will jump at the chance to talk comics and throw out their recommendations regardless if it's your first time or a regular. P.S. all the poor reviews from nearly a decade ago and beyond are from before ownership changed hands. None of them are indicative of the amazing experience you'll have coming into the shop today.

My daughter and I were just looking for penny sleeves and potentially some baseball cards. I noticed it was more TCG based store nurses a sports store, with my daughter being new and loving Pokémon and One Piece we stayed. The store had some basic cards for sale so my daughter and I went through them to help her build her little collection. Upon getting ready to purchase the store rep MIKE, overheard me tell my daughter it was time to pay so make her selections, Mike told her just takes emails. He told me how they love to donate when they can and that the couple of cards wouldn't hurt anything and it truly made my daughter day. She was so happy and she can't wait to go back and visit. The crazy thing though, they still kept the highest level of service with a full house for a card tournament they were hosting, which looked pretty cool ......lol Thank you Mike!!!

I love how the guys welcome you in and are friendly. We drive 30 mins away because not only are they nice, they have a wide selections of everything from pokemon, magic, one piece, rift bound, slabs etbs, bulk etc. The value is spot on and they are willing to make a deal so bring cash too as a tip. You can tell they have built a really sweet local community everyone who comes in and out have been regulars. It's clean and smells good in here. If you never checked this card shop out you should!

Victor is the best for customer service and advice!…read more Came here on a whim during Labor Day while driving through the area. At first I couldn't find the shop, the address sent me to the other side where there's a pharmacy - if you find the pharmacy you're in the right area, just go in the alley to the backside. They don't have big signage out their front door so it may be hard to find and it might look "closed" but if it's normal hours then you're probably in luck! The prices are somewhat reasonable - some singles and sealed products are at a decent price while some are just trying to match the market. But I get it, the shop needs to make money too. It sucks for the normal consumer/collector as we take the hit for the market prices. There seems to be a lot of singles to pick up - there's a good selection of cards on display and, if you ask, they have more binders with other singles that may not be as popular. Overall, I had a good experience with Victor. Very kind, super respectful, and ready to answer any and all questions. Will be back to shop some more in the future!

They let me look through all their binders and really have good prices that are affordable, especially in this economy. And this is like the only car shop where I've actually got hits from so I'd recommend. I would give five stars, but I've been here twice on a Tuesday and it's been closed both times but according to their Apple Maps it's open so yeah. But they have a big selection of cards you can choose from.
