Unfortunately, they don't have a good selection of YGO cards, just 10-cent common cards. They have a selection of cheap Pokémon cards from 10 cents to $1. Not a bad store to go to if you need something like cards or board games but felt a little weird inside. Edit: Changed to one-star due to business response and poor customer service. Man acts like I've never stepped foot in a card shop before.

They have it all! And not to mention they are charging fair market value prices for the items they have! Hopefully they find a distributor soon so prices are even better but it's better they try to find a great middle ground for you, vs hiking prices up as high as they can! The entire staff is super friendly and very knowledgeable in the products that they have! They literally treat you like one of their own, and that's beyond amazing! They also have a room that they can play and host tournaments! Did I mention they also have a ramen station??? The kid in me is literally in heaven! I can't wait to make more stops here

This place was huge and had an amazing atmosphere for kids of all ages. I brought my daughter, and she was absolutely in heaven. She got to trade cards, pick up some of her favorite characters, enjoy some snacks, and spend time socializing with other kids who share the same interests. We even ended up setting up a future play date with some new friends she met there to trade cards again. Overall, it was an incredibly positive experience for children -- fun, social, welcoming, and family-friendly. We will definitely be coming back.

While going in a guy was telling people 1 box per person, however, when it was her turn he wouldn't sell to her- changed his mind and said it was 1 per group. Yet, when another one of our friends went in, he was given a 1 box per person. That's extremely discriminatory when those rules were not implemented with other groups who were in the shop. Ended up going to a different shop who was selling the same box set, and they even allowed her to buy four boxes. If this place had limited inventory, they should have been opened about that or stuck to the same rules instead of discriminating and changing them to only my friend while letting the guys buy.

There is a worker Esteaven (The one who looks like a walking exercise ball) who provided such horrible service that I will never ever step foot inside this place again.

Bad service and poor communication…read more I've been trying to catalogue my MTG collection lately. I drove 40 min to get to this shop because they have a machine that scans your cards. I paid the shop to rent the machine and waited for 2 hours. Then the staff told me "We made a mistake setting this up. We can't give you the scanned info, but leave your cards behind and your email address, and we can send them over. You'll just need to scan this thing we send you." I was uncomfortable leaving my cards behind because they're important to me. But I didn't want to walk away empty-handed. So I decided to trust them and I left my cards behind. I didn't hear anything for 4 days. I had to call them and they said "Oh the employee you were talking to got sick. If you want to pick up your cards you can do that though." I asked "How about scanning my cards?" and they said "We'll message the sick employee and call you back to let you know what he says". I waited 3 more days and they didn't contact me at all. I realized they weren't going to reach out to me to resolve the issue, so I had to drive down to the store to demand my cards back. I don't know who the person running the back of the shop is. Maybe the manager. Maybe the owner. All I knew is that they had context on the whole situation and knew that I had returned to get my cards. They didn't bother to come over to talk to me. They didn't even give me eye contact. They didn't make even a single attempt at improving the situation. Not even an offer for store credit. Not even a sorry. They just shrugged and yelled across the room "machine's broken". Then they went back to puttering around and left another employee to deal with me. This other employee had no context on the situation. All she could do was hand me a cash refund and give me a confused "Sorry...?" I was treated like I was an annoyance. Someone who'd go away eventually if you ignored them. Not a respected customer who just wanted to do business. I'm not mad that the machine was allegedly broken. I'm only slightly mad that the employees aren't trained on how to use the machine. I'm frustrated that I paid for a service and they didn't bother seeing the job through to the end. They didn't communicate when they decided to give up. I trusted them with my personal card collection and they betrayed that trust. I don't even know if I have all my cards back, but I'll never know. Save yourself the stress.

This is a specific Bullpen Sports HQ review of their Saturday 04-05-25 Bullpen Card Show... and…read morethat coincided with National Hockey Card Day (they gave away free Upper Deck NHL hockey cards and packs just for attending) So, it was a card convention event! FREE Admission inside of the retail store. Spacious with probably maybe around 30-50 dealer tables. What I praised to one of the staff of this store about, as well at chatting with some of the sellers at Bullpen is that it felt like a lot of the "dealers" were not the typical ones of today's show-off "let's go!" era who sell cards for a living or hustle by bringing overpriced cards like a museum that have arrogant attitudes wanting to flex and show off their cards but with price-tags nobody's paying. This show felt like most of the "dealers" were simply hobby collectors looking to resell and priced their merchandise to sell and move. They were family friendly to kids and appreciative to customers with upbeat attitude. We bought some low end Pokemon cards and when curious to see the online eBay comps which is generally cheaper, I found the cards we purchased were comparably equal or lower (factoring online shopping typically necessitates paying shipping and sales tax) and we got to browse and take home cards immediately. We've been to shows like the Burbank Card Show and left it deflated because there was nothing to buy in terms of good opportunities. Bullpen Sports HQ is quite the opposite! They are a retail LCS (local card store/shop) and opened their doors to theoretically competitor sellers in camaraderie to benefit the hobby and collectors for a card show convention type event. All of the dealers seemed to have a nice variety of sports cards and also Pokemon cards. The pricing was very fair with everyone we saw and there wasn't any mega-booths pushing overpriced cards or promoting their rips or breaks. This felt like a local show from the 1980's type vibe. The sellers were easy to talk to and very gracious to customers whether browsing and not buying, picking up $1 caliber cards or negotiating discount offers for deals. I highly recommend this for everyone and especially kids and their parents. Several dealers gave my young 8 year old son free gifts too! I believe the staff said they try to hold these card shows several times a year, maybe every 6 weeks or spread after every 2 months and the rates for dealer tables seem very fair for collectors to come set up and sell. With all that being said, this was an amazing event that exceeded expectations. Parking was easy, especially if you're willing to walk a few short minutes using free parking on the neighborhood streets.
