I know there are a few of us here from the Northeast Ohio area. Has anyone visited the All-Pro Sportscards in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio? It's located at 492 Graham Road. I just stopped in there today for the first time. It's a pretty nice sized store with lots of inventory and competitive prices. He has a nice amount of quality older singles, and all of the newer wax that you would expect. It was really nice shooting the breeze with the owner, debating the whole graded versus raw thing. Cool place and definitely worth the trip. It's sort of out of the way for me since I live in the Canton/Massillon area, but I work in south Akron so I made it there and back during my lunch hour.
The place I used to go to was Cardboard Dreams on Canton Road in Akron, but they just shut down for some reason last week. Sucks because I loved getting my supplies from him, and he was always on top of the new product releases.
Another great place is Elite Sports Cards in Massillon, Ohio. It's located at 51 North Ave. N.E.. I don't make it there as much as I would like because they're open during the same hours that I work, but it's large shop with a great variety of wax and singles. I could spend hours talking to the owner, he's a good dude.
Anyone else know of good shops in the Northeast Ohio area? Seems like a lot of these shops are shutting down. The internet is killing the brick and mortar stores, but we knew that already.

<< <i>I am from Avon Lake, we have Hooked on Cards in Avon, about 5 miles from my house. I have stopped in at the warehouse and picked up a box from time to time. Besides that not much up here near Lake Erie that I know of. My daughter works at Summa Hospital in Cuyahoga falls, next time I am down that way to visit I will have to stop at that shop. >>
Every time I'm back north I stop by and pickup supplies at Hooked On Cards. Very good inventory of supplies.

<< <i>Wow, I've never heard of Hooked On Cards before, and I was just up that way last Friday at Victory Sports Park! The company I work for also owns Victory Sports Park, so I'm up that way pretty often. Next time I'm up there, I'm definitely stopping in. Thanks! >>
You better put their address in your gps or you will never find it. Off the beaten path on an Industrial Parkway amongst the warehouses.
<< <i>Vintage Finds is a good shop. They have all vintage and do a fair amount on ebay. Ebay name is Cuznbutch. It is close to the Cleveland Zoo.

I've been there a few times. Always has some vintage and pretty good prices. Bought 3 '63 football hof players and a 61 Post Indian. Paid $50 for the 4 of them and all graded 8. Guy wheels and deals....
