Any card shops in Myrtle Beach?

Id love to take a trip to any shops in the Myrtle Beach area while I am down there on vacation this coming week.
So, any members here know of anything in the area?
Thanks,
Arex

    Baseball 17 on N. Kings Hwy


    I go there. He's a really nice guy and has some decent stuff.

    Where is that? I remember one a long time ago down near the old Waccamaw Pottery Store down near the river and where the old old draw bridge was. Is that it?

    Baseball 17 is on 17 towards Surfside. I remember that shop near Waccamaw, spent quite a bit of vacation money buying boxes of 1995 Finest. If I had to guess he isn't there due to the construction and high rent.

    Baseball 17 is the only card store left in Myrtle Beach, the owner Donnie is a great guy and I have been visiting his store for years.

    The one near Waccamaw Pottery off 501 was called Baseball Diamond and has been closed for years.

    There is a small card show july 11-28 at Myrtle Beach Mall in North Myrtle Beach, usually just a couple tables.

    Enjoy your vacation!!

    I was just there with the family the first week of June. Baseball 17 was the only shop I could find. The guy was nice and willing to chat. The only Pre-War he had was a Mathewson Dark Cap and a Leaf Dimaggio, but I picked up some junk wax on the cheap and some Bowman Jumbo. He had a binder of Desert Shield commons for a buck a piece and a display case with some decent 60s-70s stars for half off.

    Interestingly enough, the base that is nearby is where the bulk of the cards were shipped back from the Mid East. Those soldiers stationed at the AFB received a portion of those returned and most resold those to local collectors. If it were me, I would inquire about any possible unopened Desert Shield he may have or any contacts that may have some stashed away...could be a possible gold mine!
