    “We love Double Up! We recently started collecting Pokemon cards and they have had some great options when we come in despite how popular the cards are at the moment. Staff is kind and engaging to my daughter, which makes her even more excited about collecting, she can't wait to come back in and show her most recent pulls!”

    “Their card game inventory is stacked with Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards, and their video game selection covers everything from Nintendo to Xbox, PlayStation, and Xbox One. What really sets this place apart is that they buy, sell and repair all of these products, which makes it easy to trade in, upgrade, or hunt for great deals.”
