Even though Pokémon is clearly their main thing, I was still able to find some great Magic cards as well. I've been back three times since my first visit, and every experience has been consistently great. Shoutout to Jake for being awesome and welcoming on my first visit -- definitely made me want to come back.

First time visiting the location. Met one of the employees or owner at a card show. Decided to…read moredrive 40 minutes with my friend from where we live to visit because the worker at the show offered a free pack if we brought in a flyer and claimed to be veteran owner and family run. Pros- -Parking is open -lighting is good -decent trade on raw singes Cons- -Sells lightly played cards for near mint prices and hides whitening on cards with non clear penny sleeves (my bad for not checking but you knew) -small selection of stock -low trade in value for slabs -didn't seem to be either veteran owner or family run. -gave me one JP (womp womp) pack for coming in with the flyer but not my friend Overall negative experience. There are better cards shops out there

He loves to open decks with our daughter and especially loves finding cards that are of value. This shop had GREAT options that seem to match so many different card lover needs. I left feeling very excited that I found the perfect gift although I walked in so nervous not knowing what to expect. 10/10 recommend. thank you again Chris and Isabelle! The vibes were all 10/10.

This is the OG POPMART location that I first started going to and started my love for Pino Jellies…read more Over the years and through the hype, this POPMART is constantly busy and packed. As an art store, there are already small aisles since the store is filled with displays. The customers that come in and out aren't the kindest people. There's pushing, shoving, and nonexistent boundaries. My only hope is for some sort of expansion so there's less exchanges of germs. As an avid collector, I'm still a fan and still adore this location. My only hint to visitors: park in the building next to Din Tai Fung for the easiest and quickest access to the store!

I would not recommend purchasing any items from the South Coast Plaza storefront. We purchased a…read morefew of the skull panda blind boxes and within the first two days of having the toy pendant, one arm fell off and then within the week, the second arm fell off. We came in within 30 days of purchase and spoke to 2 employees (a counter employee and the manager) about the problem requesting an exchange. I did not have the receipt, as it had been discarded after opening, but the manager had me entertain him by searching for a spot with good cell phone reception (providing proof of purchase within 30 days) and after all the time spent re-explaining the problem and finding a place in the mall with good cell phone reception, and logging into my credit card account, was still told there was nothing they could do about it. That is terrible customer service! Why would you waste a Customer's time and effort if you plan on not resolving the situation? I did not intend to pay over $30 for a poorly sewn product and do not recommend doing business with the South Coast Plaza Popmart store.

I've been trying to find a place to play Lorcana, and my cousins suggested this spot. This was my…read morefirst time playing a card game at a comic shop, and I have to say, this place is awesome. It's tucked away in the back of an office park on the second floor, so it can be a bit hard to find. However, once you arrive, you're greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The store is clean, organized, and the games are a lot of fun. They really make an effort to get you involved in the small community--it feels like you're playing at a friend's house. Even though I didn't score too well, I had a great time, especially as a beginner. I highly recommend this place for your weekly card tournament.

She is really friendly and it's always nice to chat with her since I also work retail and I understand & sympathize how crazy it can get during holiday season. I really hope to see her again next time I'm shopping at this location! Parking can be tricky at times, but the selection at this specific store is plentiful. Wayyy way way better prices than if you went to Michael's with coupons :) Anyway -- thank you Alex for making my shopping experiences here something to look forward to. Please give her a raise or some sort of reward in an upcoming review because she is truly stellar!!!

It's a lot cheaper than the Costa Mesa location, especially for the items they have on the shelves. I don't really understand how their pricing works though. I've seen identical items be priced differently, so I'm not sure what determines that. It's really fun to look around since their stock is always changing, and they have great prices for their Pokemon items. I've gotten a lot of unique items here that would have been much more expensive to buy directly from Japan because of all the new tariffs. Overall, this place is definitely worth the visit! There's so many cool things you can find if you take the time to look through their stock. The workers don't mind if you're there for a long time either which is great. Unfortunately, the parking lot is pretty terrible around noon, but it's fine later in the day.
