What Altoona shoppers say

SCG Hobby, Altoona

Very large shop. Just needed penny sleeves wasn't expecting such a large collection of cards and boxes for sale. Great selection. Very clean store and very friendly staff. I will be back when I have more time to browse. They even buy cards.

The Comics Vault

My favorite shop to play magic the gathering at. Owner is super friendly. Store is amazing to walk through and check out. An old bank that's been turned into an institution for comic memrobila and collectables.
