First and last time I step foot in this place, I was recommended by a friend because of their huge selection of sealed product and slabs. Apple Maps said they close at 7pm, I showed up at 5:45 figuring I had time to look around. Apparently they close at 6pm so I decided to go straight to the One Piece TCG section and found a card I wanted. They had 5 copies of it, I asked for help to get the card and the guy behind the counter handed me one of the copies, I asked if I could choose one out of the 5 to check condition and he looked at his watch, grunted a big ol "uuugghhh" and proceeded to say "your cutting it close man we're about to close". Now I know my $20 dollar purchase isn't going to keep the lights on in this place but for him to make me, the customer feel like I'm a nuisance to him really pissed me off, It literally take 30 seconds to inspect a card. I walked out without buying anything. Horrible customer service by that sale rep, Customer service and shopping experience is what hobby stores are based on. read more

We love going to Burbank Sportscards! My 4yr old is an avid Pokemon card collector. I had purchased the Prismatic Surprise Box for him, but when we opened it, we realized it had been tampered with, the cards were in Japanese. Ryan was quick to respond via email and advised us to come in for an exchange. We ended up choosing the Prismatic Booster Bundle instead. To our surprise, my son pulled the God Pack! This lucky 4yr old scored the ultimate cards, such a core memory for us! read more

I had a relatively foul experience with Burbank Sportscards back in March '25 when I was first getting back into the hobby. First the good; a solid selection of supplies, wax, as well as modern and vintage singles. The negative; I came here ready to spend a few thousand dollars on some vintage grails. Initially, I spent a good amount of time with a rep who was upbeat, patient, and knowledgable. I explained what I was looking for and asked about room on sticker prices if I were to package up a few vintage singles. He assured me they'd be able to work with me and to let him know once I was done perusing and had identified everything I was looking for. By the time I had all the singles picked out, he was busy and passed me off to a gruff and impatient rep. The experience turned sour immediately. As soon as I ran down the list of cards I was interested in making an offer on, he balked at even getting the cards out of the case to take a look. His remark was something along the lines of, "Are you actually going to buy these before I get them out? Cause there's no room for negotiation." First off, who would even buy a card at these price points without examining the cards first? Second, how is that any way to talk to a customer? How an individual like this managed to get into a customer facing position is beyond me. I'm not sure if this was some sort of good cop, bad cop approach to negotiating, but suffice to say they lost a few thousand dollars in business that day, and a returning customer. The "gentleman" was generally off-putting and made me feel like I was barely welcome in the store, much less ready to work with me on a deal. He seemed to be a generally miserable individual taking his garbage out on those around him. I eventually made my way back to the original rep who whispered an apology on behalf of the staff, and advised me to come back during the week when the owner's son was there, as he was more likely to work on a deal. Keep in mind I'm not some child off the street looking to simply hold some fancy vintage cards for a minute. I came ready to buy for a reasonable price. Instead I left empty handed, other than an absurdly overpriced 2-row storage box that could be purchased off Amazon for a quarter of the price. While I hesitate to let the actions of one individual dictate my experience of a store, management makes conscious decisions with whom they hire and choose to represent their business. I'm sure I'm not the first to experience this individual's misery, which tells me the business knowingly condones his behavior. Do yourself a favor and attend a show instead where you can actually get something reasonably priced around market value. Of if you want a better LCS experience, try Bullpen Sports HQ down in HQ. Much better customer service. read more

When I planned my trip to L.A., I had these guys on the list. I saw a piece either on cable or YouTube about these guys and since I recently started collecting cards, I thought I might be able to score a deal and get an education. Unfortunately, between the time I booked my trip and arrived, they closed. Not sure what the cause was, but I'll give these guys credit for keeping their Yelp page up to date, I would have been pretty upset, had I drove out to only find the location closed Not sure when I'll be back, but I'll keep them on the list. read more

My friend and I had a blast sifting through binders in the Pokemon section. So many cool cards at great prices. Also, Bailey at the counter was super helpful and nice! read more

Arrived on a Saturday and was handed a ticket for a free raffle they were doing. I didn't win, but though it was pretty cool that they were doing that. I did an online order for a Shedeur Sanders card and it was there waiting for me. Did some browsing and picked up two additional graded cards that I got below market value. Staff was friendly and I look forward to going back. read more

This is a really cool sports card store -- the selection is top-tier and everything is impressively well-organized. You can tell the owners care about collectors and the experience. But let's talk about the real MVP: the bathroom. I wasn't expecting much, but WOW. It's clean, stylish, and unexpectedly awesome. Honestly, I blew the toilet up... and it still felt like a luxury experience. 10/10, would shop (and drop) here again!!! read more

OK, the new location for Burbank SportsCards is absolutely phenomenal! I've been a hobbyist of various paper collectibles for 5 decades now, and this is far-and-away the best in-store experience I have ever had (and I say that having visited a plethora of cards, comics, and games shops over time). Seriously, the place is just electric; for example, where else can you walk in and peruse over a hundred PSA graded T-206 tobacco baseball cards? Unreal... Owner Rob (aka "The Cardfather") is a hobby maestro - everything from the inventory, to the displays, to the staff, to the marketing, to the air conditioning, to the parking, etc., is just perfect. And oh yes, the pricing is competitive too. If I could, I would give Burbank SportsCards 6 Stars I just love this place! read more

This place is probably a he most expansive card store I've been to. They have basically every card series and sport you can think of. Tons of psa cards if you got that kinda budget for that as well as tons of budget friendly loosies for 2 bucks or less. While most think they would be quite trash there were tons of players I loved growing up in there along with the unknown busts. Tons of workers always asking you if your good helps as well. Id drive to the valley for this! read more

Our kids (9 and 7) are obsessed with sports cards, Pokémon, you name it. The staff is super knowledgeable and has been extremely helpful in identifying what to buy. The kids have gotten really valuable cards from the recommended packs. The entire staff is patient, helpful, and kind. read more

Drove 40 minutes for the PSA grading. First off, the guy working the PSA was pretty rude. I've never graded a card before so I was hoping he could help walk me through the process. Instead he said I had to use the app and he'd take the cards from me. The app is a bit confusing so when I would ask for help he would give attitude. After I finished I gave him the card and he said I'd get an email but that's it. If I was gonna basically do it myself, I wouldn't have drove 40 minutes. Also the prices on Pokemon cards is absolutely ridiculous. Everything is so overpriced. I definitely wouldn't come back or purchase anything from here. read more

Great store with a ton of selection. The team there was unbelievably helpful and the level of customer service is just not heard of these days. My son is just getting into baseball cards and I had no idea what time doing. Instead of trying to sell me the most expensive box they pointed me to a more affordable option given his age. Then they through in some free sleeves for him. Little stuff like that goes a long way and made me a customer for life read more

I love coming to this store as a new collector. Specifically, when I come to store the people that help me the most and provide impeccable customer service is Lori D. and Christian R. I highly recommend coming to them for all your sports cards needs. read more

I have been coming to Burbank Sportscards for many years now. It is my favorite shop and one of my happy places to be at. I buy, trade, and sell to them and have always had a positive experience. I have been collecting sportscards for nearly 30 years and although sportscards is my first love, the last couple of years, my interest shifted to TCG. I am very happy that as my interest shifted, so did Burbank Sportscards' inventory. They carry a bunch of TCG products now too. They recently moved to a much bigger store. The new store looks amazing. This is a family owned business and the owners and staff are all nice and hardworking. Their amazing store and team is a reflection of their work ethics. Burbank Sportscards has been instrumental in keeping the sportscard hobby alive, which I appreciate as a collector. I love all of the staff at Burbank as well. They are welcoming, knowledgeable, and kind. read more

If you're already in to cards then you know about this place and how great it is, so this is more for newbies who just happen to stumble across this yelp page. This is THE spot to go for all things cards (including trading cards, not just sports!). Yes there are fancy cards with 5 figure sticker prices, but there's things for all people, ages, and price points. Even a quarter! Parking can surprisingly be tough even with a large parking lot, just goes to show you how popular this place is. Wouldn't be popular if it wasn't the best in town. One thing though is at their previous location there used to be a "cash price" but now it's the same whether you pay cash or card read more

Burbank Sportscards has become a second home for me which can be bad too lol. Not only do they have great inventory but the customer service I get every time is top notch! Always appreciate my time in the store. Take care and God Bless read more

Service was the best. So many workers that you can ask questions that they help with espionage since I was a first time vistor. Selection can be considered to be the highest ever as Burbank Sportscards has everything from F1,NASCAR,Football,Baseball,Basketball,Non-sports, TCG,vintage,singles,graded and much more. What was my favorite part is nearly all cards on the show floor are at market or little below so no need to try to get a bargain. I would advise neew comers if you have cards to trade in go to the kiosk first and get on the list to sell or trade your cards for store credit. They offered be a reasonable trade for store credit that paid half of both of the cards I purchased. It seems they offer door prizes hourly, however check with the store or website as I don't know if that is every day. Whether you are a young kid just starting in this hobby or a long time veteran. This has to be the only sports card shop I have been to that has something for every collector. I will be back again. read more

I brought a box with about 500 old cards to be checked, and the person in charge looked at them, grabbed a few, and said a bunch of BS just to get rid of me as quickly as possible. I guess it would've been too much work, right? Think of a place with a heavy vibe, that's the place. All you see around are scalpers and business deals. There's no joy in that place. These aren't collectors; they're the reason this hobby is being destroyed. If you're looking for a real experience, skip this "only-business, not-collecting" store and support a small local shop where you're always welcome and can meet good people. read more

Oh my goodness! Burbank Sportscards is one awesome looking card shop! I love browsing the multitude of display cases showcasing so many incredible sports cards. They have cards that fit any budget. My budget is very low when it comes to sports cards, but they fit that too cause they have plenty of value boxes with cards starting as low as one dollar. They do buy sports cards and trade for cards as well. Don't expect them to pay you 100% of comps though. 55% of comps is more realistic. Higher percentages given if the cards you are looking to sell or trade are real popular at the time. I've met the Card Father and his son. Both are very cool, and a pleasure to do business with. Staff has always been polite and helpful the times I've dropped by. Happy to have Burbank Sportscards only a couple of hours drive from me. read more

Amazing store! I got good prices on everything and I called 5 different other stores to see if there prices match, they didn't Burbank was way cheaper. They have so many cards to choose from, so much wax, and they even have TCG. I have been here a couple of times cause I live 45 minutes away, but I will keep on coming! read more

Burbank Sportscards - This is a photo of a card that I took and I really liked it so I took a photo - Hobby Shops Near Me - Burbank, California

To start everything was well organized and put together but when it comes to customer service it was kinda bad. Every employee just had a frown and seemed to be depressed to be even working there. One of the workers was staring me down the whole time even though there was someone who looked like they were gonna rob the place but okay whatever. When I get the cards I wanted I was taken to check out but when I got to the register the employee gave me crap for what I was buying and said "For this much I should just charge you more" which I could tell he wasn't joking cause there wasn't even a single ounce of a smile on his face. I'm really disappointed with the service here and for the prices of everything I would just buy somewhere else since they compare to a lot of other places and you'll probably get better customer service there! read more

Best experience I've ever had at a card shop!!! I loved everything about this store. I came all the way from oregon to visit the shop. The interior and exterior of the shop is so well done, the murals and designs are top notch. The selection and pricing of all the cards was so amazing, you could find anything you were looking for. All of the employees I interacted with were very friendly and helpful. After having an issue with a card I purchased they provided some of the best customer service iver ever seen. Can't say enough good things about this store! read more

Burbank Sportscards has the world's largest inventory of sports cards in the world (over 40+ million cards as of mid 2022) and "The Cardfather" Rob Veres has been a co-owner since 1987. I first head about this place from a YouTuber named SashaT & the background image from the Washington Post article on sports cards boom came from Burbank Sportscards fulfillment center (https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/07/14/pandemic-sports-card-boom/). There's a small parking lot at the front entrance, but there are additional parking spots in the rear. This new location just recently opened in June 2021 and the shop has multiple display cases with a huge selection of graded sports cards. 99% of graded cards are sports cards and 1% of them are miscellaneous TCGs such as Pokémon cards. In addition, they also sell supply for sports cards such as sleeves (for raw cards and graded cards including PSA and BGS), team bags, protective cases (storage cases or exterior protective cases for graded cards), toploaders, binders, storage cardboard boxes, etc. Burbank Sportscards has buying hours from Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 11 AM to 1 PM & 2 PM to 6 PM, Wednesday from 2 PM to 6 PM, and Saturday from 11 AM to 1 PM & 2 PM to 5 PM. No buying or trading on Monday and Sunday & you'll need to reach out co-owner Ryan via email for a larger collection. Lastly there's a small section in the shop called the Fishbowl (selection of raw dollar cards). All dollar cards (sports cards only) are categorized into different decades and just ask the staff to grab a box & you'll be able to search through boxes like doing modern day treasure hunting. All of non-sports sealed products are displayed in the Fishbowl and almost all non-sports sealed products are modern sets for Pokémon (occupied 1/3 of the shelves), Magic: The Gathering, Yu-GI-Oh!, wrestling, soccer, and a Kickstarter trading card game called Metazoo. This is the place to stop by for sports cards enthusiasts and pick up supplies for sports cards & trading card games. For non-sports cards enthusiast, this is not a must visit and you'll want to visit Frank and Son Collectible Show (Rowland Heights, CA) instead. read more

I have been a fan of Rob and Burbank Sportscards for a very, very long time. Rob has been a leader in the sports card industry for decades and now that they moved to their new location, they are more amazing than ever! I was able to visit last Saturday and it was like this one sports cards store was a card show--better than many card shows! They even have PSA grading on site. What fun! They have tons of cards of every type. It is a very spacious and most user-friendly sports card store I've ever been in. There's plenty of remarkably friendly staff to assist. They have a lot of great prices too! There's so much to see that I couldn't do it all in one visit. I can't wait to go back. Thank you very much, Burbank Sportscards! You are amazing. read more

Went in to check out the Pokémon cards and it's worse than scalper pricing. Why would I buy from this place at scalper prices plus tax on top, when my friendly neighborhood scalpers don't charge tax and I can still negotiate and talk them down on price. I know this place has distribution access so why are they selling at scalper price is beyond me. I would understand little mark up but it's marked up more than the scalpers. Only thing that had a fair price were the penny sleeves 100 for a dollar. read more

This place is awesome! I'm new to the card collecting, via my husband, but I enjoyed looking at all the cool cards they had. The place has a large variety of items. The owner was delightful and was very welcoming. The staff, knowledgeable, and gave great recommendations to my husband. For being a first timer, this place was not overwhelming. I would definitely come back and would recommend this place to my friends. read more

I found their account on Instagram. It was on my algorithm immediately disliked the card Old annoying man declaring how great he was, but I needed to see for myself. I went to the store. It's spacious with lots of room lots of showcases lots of super high prices, which is OK it's the prerogative to charge what they want but I can tell you this no way what I ever spend a dollar in this place especially with the staff that they have knowledgeable unmotivated as far as a card father he wasn't there at least I didn't see him horrible experience in order to call myself a customer. I spent five bucks on some Rando cards from a customer. Avoid this place. Tell the card father change the name maybe annoying father read more
