This is a great shop. There is a lot of box and single cards inventory and the owners are incredibly nice and knowledgeable. The prices are reasonable and my husband and I go here whenever we are in the area. Highly recommend!!! read more

I haven't been to the shop in years, but I've gotta say, this was one of the best locations in the state for a wide selection of vintage. 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! read more

very, very expensive and the service is quite lack luster, the only thing saving their rating from not getting a 1 star review is their decent selection compared to other shops, but it comes at a price, a very high one at that. read more

My husband and son are avid card collectors. They visited this store yesterday and a particular card was more than double the cost of the card in other places. When my husband showed him what eBay was charging, the response was "I don't care about comps (comparable values), they don't pay the overhead". This card dealer charges way more than other card shops. He had a card marked as $20.00 and tried to charge my 11 year old $30.00. Needless to say, this place will never get our business. If you want a card shop that works with you to give you a fair deal, go to Central Sports in Pawtucket. read more

Mike at Sports Heroes is THE most knowledgeable sports memorabilia dealer. He has one of the finest well-stocked stores I have ever seen. Mike gives straight answers and "shoots" from the hip. Don't get his serious approach confused with an insatiable desire to please his customer. His selection of vintage cards, magazines, sets, star cards, storage boxes, and accessories go on and on. I'm fussy and meticulous, I like mint and near-mint cards and Mike has what I'm looking for. His prices are always fair and reasonable. It's a pleasure doing business with Mike and his two sons.....

I have stayed in the store for about an hour just looking and the conversation with the guys is great. Easy to talk to and an easy shop to go in and out of quickly. I always go in there and expect to be happy when I leave and I always am. I would rate it higher than 5 stars if I could. I always recommend this store to anyone looking for a good card store! read more

The owner changes prices is higher than most wont match Ebay highly suggest not going there at all.

Although i must say i'm not a sports fan of any type nor a collector of sports cards . I stopped in here to see if they had card storage boxes for my large amount of mtg cards . They had several boxes , sizes , shapes and uses . Very impressive display of supply's .They had sports magazines , card packs and older "case" cards. Looks like a great place if you are into this sort collecting . The person working there was helpful and courteous even though i only spent $4.00 on the very reasonably price box. I stopped in a few weeks later to buy another box which i notice had been restocked to full after the one i bought . there was a different person working who was nice , courteous and helpful even though i spent $4.00 . I guess this place understands that a customer is a customer . recommend to all you collectors of sports cards and memorabilia. read more

Very unwelcoming shop. Even though I'm a repeat customer, the owner never remembers me or engages me in conversation, like other shops do. I've given this shop several chances, but I just don't feel comfortable there. Not recommended. read more

These guys are great, helped me find everything I need and the price is great! Can't recommend strongly enough

I have stopped in a few times and bought at least $100 worth of cards every time the owner is great he don't hound me to buy anything or stand over my shoulder while im going through the cards. I wish every place was like this place. read more

I absolutely love this place. The owner and his sons are very amicable, accommodating, and knowledgeable about the hobby. There is an amazing stock of sports cards as well as other collectables on hand for your shopping pleasure. The best card shop in RI. read more

I take the boys here at the end of an exceptional school week. They are thrilled to find various sports cards and feel that they get great buys with the few dollars they have to spend. The man at the counter is SO patient with all of their questions too. Awesome place! read more
