Went here for the first time today to get some Pokemon cards for my son. They had made special gift bags for their customers and we happened to be the 1st customers. It was a very thoughtful gift and thing to do for their customers. Also very polite and reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend and I will return again. Thank you. read more

Phantomich - A very thoughtful gift on Valentine's Day for the first customer. My son loved it. Thank you again. - Hobby Shops Near Me - Concord, California

Phantomich was a great shop the clerks were very helpful and very nice pretty good prices

I couldn't my old review to update it but did want to make sure I put something on here. Although my experience started off rocky; it definitely turned around. Igor reached out to me directly about the situation and worked towards a solution. He was more than fair to make it all right. We had a nice little chat about everything. I'm extremely grateful that this happened and look forward to doing with them again now. It's definitely nice shop and they have a variety of items. I even picked up one more item while I was there. read more

Phantomich is the best card shop I've been to in the bay area. They have a wide selection, the staff are super knowledgable and friendly, and they even accept trade-ins for either store credit or cash value for your items. The owner, Igor, is a true gentleman and you can tell he loves what he does, and treats all his customers with respect. This review is long over due, as I have been coming here for over a year now and will continue to shop here for more cards :) read more

This shop is literally the best card shop I've ever been to. They know you the first time you stop by. In my three year span of knowing this shop, It's always gotten better and better, best shop in the East Bay and possibly the Bay Area. I've been to shops all over Northern California and none of them is nearly as good as Phantomich. read more

I went in to trade in some cards knowing that not all would be taken so I didn't go in expecting too much. But I was given a fair deal for the cards he did take and was given store credit to get the new Stellar Crown ETB. The guy that was there (I assume the owner?) was genuine in his reasoning and had good attitude. I will be going back when I can! Some of the other reviews didn't seem fair and would make some people avoid this store but I do suggest visiting it, they had a good variety of sets and single packs all for good competitive prices. I think this place deserves more recognition and more chances. read more

Great place. Friendly employees & they have a lot MRG stock. The majority of the time they have items in stock what I'm looking for.

The place is located in a small strip mall next to a Dunkin' Donuts. Good amount of parking available. The store is a nice sized shop, well lit with tables on the left for playing and inventory on the right. Lots of Pokemon stuff and Magic: The Gatheringt singles/inventory. Tablets are available to search up their inventory also. Saw some other card games available, but didn't really take notice since I was there for MTG. Selection is great and the staff was helpful. Big notice: store is well air conditioned and if you're a frequent card shop goer, you know how important that is. Prices are fair for the mtg stuff I was looking for. Will add this place to favorites if I go back around this area. read more

A fantastic shop for collectors and tabletop gamers! Phantomich offers a great selection of trading cards and hobby supplies. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help. The store has a welcoming atmosphere, making it a great place to browse and connect with fellow enthusiasts. Highly recommend! read more

Friendly service but they do price their packs themselves like most card shops. We go there specially for Pokémon cards.

Awesome business owner very friendly and helpful walked away as a pleasant customer and I will be back!! A++

I stumbled by this store on the way to get some boba. I walked in to check it out. There were a few tables to the left of the store, a few groups were playing some games. The atmosphere was pretty quiet though, which I know some people appreciate more than the opposite. I was greeted when I went in and wished well when I left. It's mostly cards in here. I didn't think it was much of a selection. Pokémon, one piece, Star Wars. There were some random Funko pops sprinkled about. Otherwise I didn't think this store was anything special. I'll update if I visit again and actually buy something or use the facilities. read more

The owner is super nice, welcoming, and seems to have an actual passion for what he sells. Store is organized and has great selection of Pokémon, one piece, Japanese cards and more. All is fairly priced. read more

My brother went into the store and bought a booster box for 80 and he then asked how much the other one is , the employee replied 80 dollars, my brother comes and grabs me we head over they're the next day because the card shop is an hour away so we get there not only is it already 20 dollars extra then retail value he slaps another 20 bucks on it after checking the website so it is now 100 bucks when retail value is 59.99 through 69.99 before it was 80 ,He knew we traveled everywhere around the bay area for three days looking for this booster box for dragon ball world fusions and no one had that product then magically the product is now at a 100 yet yesterday it was 80 when my brother asked? all because a device said so when you told my brother from same said device it was 80? they have a big selection that's about it but they price gauge everything from 10-40 additional bucks I also had to wait 5 minutes while he was in a match (which is fine I understand but 2.5/5 customer services with those prices don't go hand to hand with a successful business and I am not the only one whos had these exact issues apparently. as much as I love card shops places like this make me wish TCG succeeds so these places like this don't exist anymore I also went to Fairfield and spent 1,500 next day on both pokemon and Fusions world so his fault and lost of opportunity. if this is the only card shop in concord I will pray for that city to make it through such harsh times until another one spawns HE IS ALOS NOW REMOVING PROMOS FROM THE BOOSTER DISPLAY BOXES i can not stand this scammer read more

be completely transparent. This store scalps its prices like crazy. I know for a fact that they buy these cards at a fraction of the market price but they'll throw in a few extra dollars on top the market price when they sell it. I'll give an example. At the time of this review, they have a Charizard EX 199/165 from the 151 set for $131.50. Market Price for that card is around $110. I'll give them +1 Star for having a decent inventory, but other than that, you're better off spending money elsewhere. I don't plan on shopping here again. read more

Phantomich - Overpriced card (compared to market price of $110 at time of this date) - Hobby Shops Near Me - Concord, California

Do not order from this store. They will hold your money months and then cancel your order. Just looking for a free loan. Terrible LGS. I will never do business with them again. Steer clear. read more

This is my favorite trading card store. It is clean and well stocked with friendly staff. Their pricing is comparable to the online market. Way better selection than the games of stores. read more

For true Card collectors. This place is a hidden gem, has it all! The service was excellent. The price was fair and they also have affordable merchandise for anyone with a budget. The selection was new and old for anyone looking for older booster boxes and sets. read more

Went here on a random Wednesday, and the place had a wide variety of TCGs. You like to see that in a card shop. There was one person working at that time, and he was very helpful. The inventory seemed rather organized, binders with singles of varied prices ranging from cheaper singles to the more valued and expensive stuff. The place is a bit small, but I can see it holding a decent amount of people for TCG tournaments. Would recommend checking it out if you're in the area! read more

Bad customer experience here. They have a decent selection of sealed cards but outrageous prices. They also don't list the prices and just look up the price on the internet and add extra on top. Not a good enough selection or service to warrant returning with so many other way better card shops in the area. read more

Chill atmosphere to come play some cards with the homies, or meet new people. Staff is super friendly and helpful, and the owner is really nice. My go-to store, I drive out ~1 hour several times a week because the store is great. read more

Went here looking to sell and trade some of my Pokémon cards, only to be handed a business card and treated very curtly when I had asked for assistance with the process. The lady working the counter was very standoffish, and gave the impression she'd rather I leave. So I took the business card and did just that. If you're looking to spend your money here, definitely do your research. read more

Bought a card online for in person pick up and was sent a confirmation email. Store was closed the next day when i went to pick up. Employee told me that their system was down and that my confirmation email was only a receipt and not a pick up confirmation. I was annoyed that i drove an hour in traffic and rain just find out that the store closed 3 hours early... 0/5 experience in my opinion. Hopefully this rating can go up when they get their shit together and actually have the store open read more

Scummy business practices. BUYER BEWARE. They only offer exchanges or gift card on returns for unopened items. Do not do business with them.

My daughter recently started collecting Pokémon cards and we have been to MVP which is such a mess and unorganized, Black Diamond Games which has a great staff but way overpriced, Games of Concord and jimmy is awesome there but also overpriced. Igor at Phantomich is very helpful and welcoming, he remembered us as we have been two days in a row. He has a great selection and prices are $5-$10 lower for Elite Trainer Boxes, loose packs are $3.99-$6.99, has a ton of limited edition boxes, couple of graded slabs and loose singles. He gave us a charizard playmat and some promo cards after our first visit!!! Also has magic cards, one piece, flesh and blood, Yu-gi-oh, digimon and dragon ball cards.... Thank Igor, we will be back! read more

This place is a gem; card stores are becoming more rare and this place is a staple. Inside is clean, ample product to choose from, and the pricing is acceptable. The owner is super helpful and offers fair trade in or cash value. Some of these reviews harp on pricing, which fine that's your opinion, but card shops are predicated on a speculative market so they have to protect themselves, otherwise we wouldn't have card shops at all! I will be back to either trade in or update my collection. Thanks again Igor! read more

Absurd the Price for Packs, and to say less, they market their pismatic evolution x3 their normal value as retail and take away around $15 a product while calling it a "deal" read more

Had a great experience at this store today! Great selection and the guy on staff today was amazing! Chatted with me and my husband about Pokémon, Anime, and soundtracks! I didn't get the staff's name but he was super chill. Will definitely be back! read more

Me and my girl got our very first MTG collectors Booster here its the Wilds of Elderine one. The price is pretty fair compared to the other ones in the area, and we got our chase chards so we consider this place a lucky place. Now we going back for Pokemon since their prices is very good and the service is pretty good, theyre nice people. read more

Cool little store good environment store owner is funny a lot of good players that comes to the store to have a good time.

Horrible service ! Boss is never in and when he is , if he doesn't like your cards he calls them cheap and worthless ! Worker he leaves in charge is lazy and just wants to play cards and not attend to customers. Never bring your cards here to sell . Worst experience ever !! read more

Store does scummy practices. Ordered an unopened case of Weiss Schwarz cards from them on tcgplayer, but what I received was an opened case, which they also confirmed. They guaranteed the case was not searched, but after opening all the packs, there was not a single SP. A case of Weiss Schwarz guarantees 2-3 SPs based on the set, so this confirmed that the box was searched. Offered $100 refunds, which is a drop in the bucket for the cost of a full case read more
