REI has great outdoor brands and a decent selection. Prices range and things can be on the higher-end but it's no more expensive than the manufactures sites.

But, everything is super expensive, because it is all the highest quality of outdoor gear. This is also a cooperative business, so you join for a one time fee, and once a year, you receive a profit, based on your yearly purchase. Love REI!

The owner was always good to me, even threw in a few card for free out of nowhere, which was exceptionally cool because they were 1968 Atlantic Oil Pepitone and Tresh I believe. I got great prices on everything I purchased. For everyone complaining that the owner won't match eBay prices .... This isn't home Depot! Do you message every seller on eBay that doesn't have a card for sale at what you consider a fair comp and complain to them? First of all a brick and mortar card shop has wayyyy more overhead than your average eBay seller. That being said, the atmosphere on eBay, especially with modern stuff, is to sell it as fast as possible, which usually means a lower price. Card shops aren't always in a rush to dump their stuff at a lower price. These guys have been around for decades and know the importance of being patient to maximize the return on their investments. Comps especially on newer cards literally change every week, especially if it's during the season, so of I owned a shop I wouldn't be basing my asking prices strictly from eBay comps. I've got no loyalty to the owner and I'm sure he doesn't even remember me because it's been so long, but leaving a less than favorable review over not matching an eBay price is ridiculous. That actually impacts his business negatively, and I can assure everyone that the dozen times I've made the trip to sports heroes,I was treated with great. The owner wasn't pushy, him and his son were sorting a box of vintage behind the counter or just doing their own thing. I spent time browsing through the off grade boxes they had at the center of the store ,( not certain if they're still there) they weren't looking over my shoulders. Even got into small talk on several occasions about cards and my Yankees. I have been a collector for 37 years now, and I would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone. Hope to be back soon!

He's from Detroit so finding his teams can be difficult since we're in New England but they had a few things to choose from the employee Ken was super welcoming and even went to the back to find me something that wasn't on the floor for the team I needed, I indeed bought said item. I feel like the variety in here is huge and the prices are fair priced. Ken made the experience much easier as I don't know much about sports he went above and beyond to help me. I've walked by this place so many times without even bothering coming in, but I'm glad I did because of Ken's immaculate service I'm sure I'll be buying Christmas gifts in here as well for others. First impressions mean everything. My partner is going to LOVE his gift!
