My first time visiting and it's actually a lot bigger inside than I thought! Was recommended by a friend so I decide to check it out. Was very cool and nice inside. A lot of amazing cards! I think the only problem with my visit was that I had bought some packs of eb03. I had asked the gentleman helping me how much for everything and he just ignored me unfortunately and just asked me to scan the barcode for payment.. I'm not sure if his mood was sour from the phone call he had before helping me or not but I realized this is a common occurrence I keep experiencing with tcg vendors/sellers... read more

Tons of cards, tons of fun! Employees engage with customers while also giving space for browsing and side conversations! Sales accepted! Call first to make sure the right person is on hand! Negotiated with a customer in the shop for either store credit or cash at a slightly lower rate. Lots of loose cards at 50 cents, or curated cards for much higher. Fun use of a Sunday afternoon read more

First and foremost. The selection of Pokemon and Magic the gathering was superb. Lots of great singles and sealed product. However I unfortunately came in the shop during what appeared to be a tournament. Staff seemed pretty busy. Was not greeted nor was I asked if I needed help. I definitely recommend having staff solely for the tournament and purely for helping with other customers. read more

One of my favorite card shops to go in the area! I'm a new pokemon card collector and this is a great shop with a great amount of pokemon cards, one piece, and the magic gathering. They have a great display with a couple glass cases with the more rare/expensive cards. There's also a good amount of binders that have 1-5$ cards that are organized by cuties, JP singles, etc. There's TONS and TONS of bulk cards to go through too! Brian, the owner, is extremely helpful and nice! He's willing to assist where he can and help find cards which was so nice to someone who's new to the hobby :) You can tell he also makes an effort to talk to customers and get to know them which creates a great sense of community. Make sure to stop by!!! read more

Everyone is nice here. Pretty spacious. I love how they let other people vend on one side of the store. Gives new selection to what others have. They also have events here everyday according to the whiteboard! read more

Great service, from helping you build a deck or suggestions for brewing. They have a sizable selection of MTG, Pokemon, and the most OPTCG singles in Sac County from anecdotal experience. Cards are priced fairly. I have gotten good value from trading or selling my cards for cash or store credit vs. other LGS in my two decade journey w/ TCGs. read more

Ultimate Spice Gaming - From my most recent trade-in. Fair trade w/ credits to spare. - Video Game Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

Shopkeeper at the time bumpin' some Kendrick Lamar.....I sure was vibing while browsing Pokemon cards for my sis LOL. My sis recently re-started her interest in Pokemon card collecting and this shop popped up while I was searching for one in the area that particularly features a large collection of individual Pokemon cards so I can give her some as part of her bday gift. She's strictly into the artwork of the cards and I found a few cards that would be of her liking. Many boxes here with $2-or-less cards! There are also cards in display cases with premium price tags. Similar amount of Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Disney Lorcana cards are being sold here as well. Chill shopkeeper. Shop at the time was a bit disheveled with a bunch of unorganized boxes covering the gaming tables; could've used some tidying for a more welcoming environment. read more

Absolutely love this place. I have lived in this neighborhood for several years, and I have watched them grow from their tiny previous location that was always so cramped I never felt comfortable there for more than a few minutes -- to their newer, larger space. The current space is INCREDIBLE!! I've killed at least an hour just shopping. The merchandise is all around the outer edge of the overall space, leaving the center free for the star of the show --- playing the games. My son is very much into Pokemon and there's a bunch of neat Pokemon merchandise in here, including imported items from the official Pokemon center! (I have my eye on a plushie right now...) They have very reasonable prices on everything. The space is kept very clean, and the staff is friendly (even when sometimes the clientele isn't - a testament to their professionalism). If you have only ever been by when it was in the smaller space, you are MISSING OUT. They do seem more into Pokemon (my son's game) than MTG (mine), but they do offer regular events for both -- so neither of us feels excluded. All in all, it is very clear from the upgrades that this shop is a passion project for the owner. If you're only there to play and not shop - the retail stuff is out of the way and easily ignored. If you're only there to shop and not play, you don't have to go trip over players to get to stuff. Parking typically isn't an issue unless Fusion Rose happens to have an event the same night... but even so, there's always spots further down the same lot near the SaveMart. All in all, I can't recommend them enough. Sure, there's much larger shops out there with more selection -- but this is my local shop and they have /earned/ my loyalty, so I always check here before going anywhere else! read more

I absolutely love this shop the gals inside are just gems and the sweetest. Brian is also a funny guy great straight forward honest guy. Can't wait for my cards from PSA and cgc to come back to see what I can get over there. Love it so much My work is so stressful and honestly coming here on my fridays to decompress and just relax is the best love everyone there Thank you for making this world an actual decent place read more

Great customer service, everyone seems friendly. They have a big store, and pretty fair prices along with a good selection.

Stopped in because I just got into Pokemon and wow what a selection! They have lots of singles, and a great selection of sealed products. All fair prices will definitely be back! read more

Good place, good cards, and good products. Quick customer service. And good prices on singles! Will be back to rip packs. read more

Came here a couple days ago for the first time with my boyfriend and had a great experience! The staff is very friendly, helpful, and were very patient when we got confused with the different parts of the shop and trading in our bulk. Would definitely recommend this place to all my other friends that love tcg! :D read more

First of all, just experienced my first time here today and my girlfriend and I felt like kids in a candy store. Friendly staff, great selection, had everything we wanted and then some. read more

When it opened, the door was locked and no one could get inside. We waited and extra 15 minutes for an employee with a key to actually show up. The selection however made up for it. Go plenty of fun cards. Employees are really sweet and they do a discount for students! Prices are pretty fair too. read more

Ultimate Spice Gaming - Cards that were bought - Video Game Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

Ultimate Spice had such a large selection to choose from and a very warm vibe to the store. It made me feel like I could just sit and look through cards to help with my master sets. Not only that, the service was great with all of their employees being very friendly. I found myself getting lost in conversation with them often. I have this store on my usual rotation of stores to go now. read more

Price range: low to moderate To consider: this is a new Pokémon shop that also sells yugioh, funko pops, and other collectibles. Wait time: usually 5-10 minutes Ambiance: they have tables for you to come in and duel. That have funko pops on the wall and trading cards on the shelves. You will love this place. Every time I come in there is a good amount of people buying stuff, playing card games, and chatting about anime/Pokémon/yugioh. Shoutout(s): to Brian. I first met him years ago when he had his shop at Denios flea market, now he has a brick and mortar! Support small business and buy from this shop. Location review: not too difficult to find, and always easy to find free parking. Service: good service. They usually have 2 to 3 employees. Sometimes it gets really busy, so you might have to wait a bit to be taken care of. Expectations: I expected to see Pokemon and I was not disappointed! They have sealed products, graded cards, and so much more! Improvements: I would want a more efficient transaction system. I would want the customer-to-business sale to happen quicker and more efficiently. Last words: support local and buy your favorite collector items here. This place sure is a whole heap of fun! read more

When this place actually becomes reliable & they finally figure out how to run a business I'll start coming back. I've stopped by more than 5 times during "normal hours of operation" only to find a note saying "Sorry we are actually closed until..." But until then I could never recommend a place that is as unreliable & frustrating as this card shop. UPDATE YOUR HOURS & STICK TO YOUR HOURS. 1/10 rating read more

Was just in this store to look around, and they had a small group of cards that I needed for my collection. I was already set on buying most of them, and asked if I could see them all. The first girl that helped me was nice and tried to be accommodating but doubled checked and asked if she could do so. Another girl, brunette with dark green looking highlights in the front section of her head said no, mentioning how everything is in alphabetical order and I'd be messing it up and that anybody could run off with the cards with this weird attitude and demeanor. Her tone came so out of nowhere it was so close to turning me off from purchasing anything at all. I totally understand there are policies in place, but there are way more polite ways to stating so. They seemed decently busy and I would have been fine waiting to be helped as the first girl that helped me was also trying to finish up a trade, if that meant I would be getting adequate service. Otherwise decent selection but I did not appreciate the way that I was spoken to. read more

If you are looking for a card shop that has great customer service, great tournaments, a wide variety selection of Pokémon, Magic, Lorcana, One piece and Yugioh products. This is definitely the place to visit for your Trading Card Game needs. I love this place it never disappoints. read more

BUYER BEWARE!!! Bought from this store through TCGPlayer. I purchased a $50 Magic card from the Legends set. I was sent a $0.50 card from the Chronicles set! Even a novice seller should know the difference between bulk cards and really expensive cards! The fact this store does not worries me greatly! Watch your kids if you choose to let them shop here!!! don't let this clearly unscrupulous business take advantage of them (or you)!!! read more

Great spot and great prices for tcg, friendly and helpful staff. Huge yugioh selection which brought me in. Would recommend 100%

They have everything I've ever needed and way more! The selection is great! Awesome people and there are always friendly people inside.

Im not usually one to leave reviews of any kind but we were just in there like 20 minutes ago and this experience was so weird... first off, every single time we visit this place, we are never acknowledged, the employees are always so busy taking to each other and are so involved in their conversations to actually help out their customers. We asked the girl there for the price of a box and she said "I don't know what the owner has it priced at, yeah I don't know" and walked away. She didn't ask her coworkers or even tried to look as if she wanted to help us out. I don't get it, you guys are always ignoring us to have nonsense conversations within each other , you can't talk to each other a little more to ask if anyone knows the price? Terrible customer service. I know these people don't care because they don't care about their customers but we are never coming back here. The store also smells bad just letting you know. read more

drove about 40 minutes to this store because i had been hearing a lot of good things about it. unfortunately i ended up only spending about 10-15 minutes here and left without buying anything. im not someone who typically cares all that much about customer service, but it was very lacking here. was not greeted by anyone after walking in and was never asked if i needed any help. selection of cards wasnt the greatest but i still saw several pokemon cards behind the glass i wanted to pick out, however the only person i saw working was sitting in the back room. they didn't look too interested in helping the customers who were there so i just left instead. the store also had a weird smell. probably would not come back. read more

not the best experience. didn't necessarily feel welcomed. add that to the fact the building had no air flow and was super musky.. i won't be back read more

Amazing store with some amazing employees that just want the best for the community. Wish I would've found this store for all things TCG sooner because they are all so knowledgeable. The selection is excellent they have singles, commons, lands, booster packs, booster boxes, sleeves, dice and other fun stuff too. The value is very reasonable, some things are a little pricey but overall it's always a bargain. Love this establishment! read more

Been meaning to hit this card shop up but never got the time to and boy am I glad today! Finished the decks I was building and they were very helpful in helping me find the cards. Brian is very nice and very helpful. The staff there was also very knowledgeable. I'll definitely recommend this shop to other people! read more
