What is your go to LCS? I'd figure this is a good question to ask because maybe some members are in the same state or area and have yet to hear of it (even though it wouldn't surprise me if they have already heard about it lol.) Put a link to there website or Facebook page etc. Mine is Kens Cards & Collectibles in Berlin CT.

How do you define LCS? The closest one to me is about an hour away so I don't consider myself as haveing a LCS.

You know, it's been a few years since I've been to Ken's. I didn't even know he was still open after the pandemic kicked in. He's about an hour from me so it's a haul. Will have to put the portable WL together and make a visit at some point. There used to be one closer to me, but the owner turned out to be, well.... Usually my LCS are the Enfield and Plainville shows when I can get there.

My "LCS" is alright but I do not really consider it an LCS because it is all about slabs and overpriced hobby and blaster boxes.

Ditto cardcollector65jw. Mine is too overpriced to make the trip worthwhile, as it is about 15-20 miles away. Super nice people, but would rather take my chances at Walmart and Target and retail price (which basically describes last weekend in my life-still trying to find Series 1), or I buy cheap unopened Junk Wax on Amazon or Ebay to try to find my Braves rookies, which is a ton of fun.

A card store with packs and boxes is about a 150 mile round trip. There is a place around 35 miles away that carries supplies. He is usually sold out so I have to rely on Amazon to get them.

It's a long drive from me, but Finnegans Sports cards in Albany is my favorite store by far. The owner is nice, makes deals, has a good selection and most importantly for me, has a box where every card is 5 cents!

My LCS is Mr. D's Sports Cards in New Brunswick, NJ (that's Fred, the owner), but it's a 3-hour flight for me from Texas. We have one within 10 miles here in suburban Houston, but it's not run the same way as Mr. D's. Too much emphasis on new stuff.

My LCS is about 25 minutes away. It is Lab 20 Sports Cards & Collectibles (https://www.facebook.com/lab20cards) in St. Paul, VA. There is another one about an hour away from me in Bristol, VA that is also pretty good called Southern Sports Cards (https://www.facebook.com/Southern-Sports-Cards-564283323683649/) although I don't get to visit either as often as I would like.

Matt Kenseth card collection is nearing 50% with over 2300 different cards. Always looking for the missing remainders to get to 100% completion.
