The moment I walked into this cozy little store, the store owner immediately welcomed me and talked to me briefly about the selection he had. He helped me with some One Piece cards and talked about the history of card shops in Fresno. Overall, Collector's Paradise is a quaint little shop nestled into a little neighborhood shopping center with a gaming venue and a cozy atmosphere. read more

Collector's Paradise - One Piece TCG pre-constructed deck. - Comic Books Near Me - Fresno, California

I can't say enough great things about this store! It was clear they truly care about the trading card community. Mike is friendly, patient, and genuinely passionate about helping customers, whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting out. Their selection is fantastic, with something for everyone--from sought-after cards to hidden gems you don't see everywhere. Prices are reasonable, and you can tell he puts thought into creating a space that feels welcoming and enjoyable to browse. What really stands out is the sense of community he fosters. Whether it's through his knowledgeable advice or the events they host, it's clear this isn't just a store--it's a place where people come together to share their love for the hobby. Highly recommend stopping by if you're a fan of trading cards or just looking for a great local store with heart! read more

I bought the item on the 12th of April, I messaged on the 17th of April asking why my comic hadn't shipped. They said they ship on Wednesdays. I messaged on Thursday, 20 April asking why the itel still hadn't shipped. They canceled they order saying I wasn't worth their time. I've the screen shots attached. The money isn't the issue. It's ten bucks. When someone wastes your time, then complains when they're held accountable is juvenile behavior and the act of someone who only values themselves. Whomever does business with this shop should know read more

See all

Can't say enough good things about this store. I come here practically every day. Mike is an amazing, friendly store owner. Prices are fair, and he always has nice selection of singles for sale. read more

Great store with great prices. You will find current sealed products and some nice selection of singles for a couple of games.

Wish I could give review. Walk in with cards worth about at least $400. Was offered $100. I thought it was low. I always thought this place was an honest establishment. read more

Best place in fresno to buy cards. Have bought around 3 boxes of MTG stuff and the people there are super friendly and welcoming when you walk in. The owner has started to recognize me when I walk in cause when I come in I'm buying something kinda big if they have it. Love this place. There is a lot of shit talk on this place and it's not true. It doesn't smell. It isn't the cleanest, but that doesn't keep you from browsing bulk fares at one of the tables, looking through the cases of very reasonably priced cards, or talking to the very knowledgeable people around the shop. Great place to buy cards, period. read more

RATING: Wish I could describe it, but the palce is really a 3 star. But because its the BEST place to shop and buy, I bump it up to 5 stars. Alright lets get this out of the way - this place looks like crap. The walls, floor and even regular people that come into play look dirty, obese and just plain gross. Now, onto the actual business. This place is a card collectors paradise. Literally. There are lots of old cards and the owner sells them for dirt cheap. As in tcgplayer LOWEST price minus a few dollars. And HE DOESNT TAX. Amazing. This place is amazing to pick up singles as they cant be beat anywhere else (cheaper and no tax makes cards like 5 bucks cheaper than squirrel for exmaple). Not only that but he offers GOOD store credit, like 80% of the cards sell price. I just wish he could clean the place up and this place would be brimming with players. The light bulbs are dim and tables are covered in much. And the restroom... i dont want to talk about it. For good lord man hire a cleaning lady for $100 bucks or give some cards to one of your regulars to deep clean the place. With new lightbulbs of the fluorescent kind this place can be a GODSEND! PROS: Best prices in town Friendly shop owner GREAT trade in prices CONS: For most people, this single con is enough to send me away: the place is filthy as a teenage girl with daddy issues. read more

Worse Magic the gathering store in town . The second you walk in there is this terrible smell that hits you. There is trash and debris every where and I swear I was itchy after I left. My nephue went there first, without me, and got no help with MTG. I showed him the store down the street and they took the time to help him. This place is gross and nasty. read more

I wish I could give this place a higher score. In Fresno there are so few places that have either gaming or comics - and this place isn't one of them. It truly is filthy when you walk in. The comics are all reasonably priced - from the 1980's! No vintage OR current stuff and they only have about two shelves of comics anyway. They had absolutely no Pokemon cards or most other trading card games. The place was just filthy and boxes piled all over the place. I don't know how they afford to stay open. I normally don't give anyone this poor of a score but i wish more people had reviewed it for me so I didn't waste my time coming here. I wanted to give it a chance after that one five star review but I should have known better. read more

I'm not much of a collector or even into card games but my son is. He is seven and had been asking for an entire year for me to take him there. So I finally did. He loved it! He wanted to stay longer and look around but we had to go. Lots and lots of cards and the man working there was very nice....he gave my son a few cards when we walked in. The only downside is it's very small, almost cramped inside. It was kinda hard to look through the cards because a guy was sitting in a chair pushed back real far, oh well. Other than that I would recommend :) read more

The customer service and friendliness is top notch, very well mannered and helpful. This store is centered around fantasy table top/card games but they also have a few other things like figurines, cheap comics and Pokémon. The interior of the store is fairly small with cheap tables and chairs. There are always regulars there that hang out to chit chat with each other or with the owner while watching tv or playing a card game. The restroom is disgusting, there's no getting around that so try to avoid it. The overall friendly atmosphere goes a long way for me, without that there wouldn't be much going for this small store. read more

This isn't the biggest or cleanest store there is, but the owner is very fair about his prices and everyone that I have met there is very nice and willing to help you if you have questions about certain games. If you are a pokemon trading card player this is going to be like your second home, I recently got back into pokemon and this was the only store I found that had weekly meet ups. read more

Stopped in expecting the worst. Man, some people are a little harsh. It doesn't smell. Grow up! I'm new to Magic, but not cards. This is a speciality store, to say the least. No football cards, but knows MTG. Oh yeah. Prices....better than Ebay by far. Half as much. Very knowledgeable and you can feel the reverence for the cards. I'll be returning soon. read more

I wanted to visit this location and check out what collectibles they are selling currently. I know some places might only sell magic, other focus more on yugioh. I wanted to pop in and check it out, snoop around for cool stuff. THIS PLACE HAS NOT BEEN DUSTED IN 15-20 YEARS. Like, holy crap at least keep it someone cleanly and dust-free for the regulars. Everything is scattered everywhere and there is no possibility of looking at anything as it's all under boxes, and everything's covered in dust... you'd really have to see for yourself. As soon as my friend and I entered, the man at the counter exaclaimed "can I help u?"without really greeting us, and we said it's okay we're just looking around. He promptly said "if you just tell me what you're looking i will tell you if we have it in stock", well I wasn't quite sure what i was looking for so I declinde his offer again. He asked about 2 more times right after, in a condescending manner that finally came across to me and my friend as a sign he really wants us out. I guess we were just making the magic players lose their concentration, or maybe we came at the wrong time? Either way it was embrassingly awkward of the guy, but I guess something was off about him. This place is not what is used to be. I remember walking in, there would be great service and awesome things to look at- back when I was lik 7! I wouldn't give it one star if I could. Seriously, though, why is this place still running IS THERE NOT SOME KIND OF HEALTH INSPECTOR? It's an asthma attack waiting to happen in there. There are much better collectible stores and places to host tournaments as well and this place is just... wtf. read more
