I've lived near Middletown for a good part of my life and have visited many areas of it (including…read moreMain Street). However, I was never aware that right on Main Street is a place called Main Street Market that once inside this temperature controlled "mini mall" building are several floors of cool locally owned shops. This is how I came across what I learned to be just newly opened trading card and collectible store, East Coast Collectibles Card Shop. Full disclosure here, I've been a collecting trading/sports cards since I was a kid. I started out with Pokémon and basketball and later tacked on Magic & Yu-Gi-oh cards (Full blown nerd here ). So... East Coast Collectibles is LITERALLY the perfect little shop for someone like me or for those interested in starting card collecting. They have a wide variety of collectibles for sale (autographed Funko Pops, Pokémon collectible sets and signed sports memorabilia), as well as packs or boxes of Pokémon, various sports and Magic the Gathering. They have an entire shelves dedicated to single sleeve cards that are priced in large boxes (so much). Best of all, they have a seating area with a large wooden table for customers to sit down to either sort through these individual card boxes or bring their own collection to trade/sell with the owner. Most shops don't have this seating which has left me as an adult or kid, having to sift through cards on the floor. Yes, as many collectible shops do, the owner is not only interested in selling but will buy cards they are interested in off you for a fair price (I checked ). I had a chance to talk with the owner Scott, Scott runs a very successful EC3 collectible shows at Mohegan Sun and decided to set up shop locally to continue his passion 365 days a year. Scott is extremely knowledgeable on not only the cards that he buys/sells but also understand a lot of interesting stuff about the collectible/autograph business. This card shop is not only ideal for collectible nerds like me but is super family friendly too. While I was there (for quite a while I might add), I saw Scott and another employee having great conversations with families coming in to buy Pokémon cards. I overheard him discussing with the kids the best way to start their deck building for Pokémon and recommendations for which series to start with depending on their Pokémon knowledge. If you are looking to get into card collecting, looking to beef up your decks before and tournament or are interested in expanding/trading your collection, this is a wonderful option that conveniently located off a main road in Middletown. If you aren't fans of trying to find main street parking and use meters, there is a public parking right behind the building off a side street with PLENTY of parking and easy access for those going it alone or with families of all ages. Go visit Scott at East Coast Collectibles, you won't be disappointed!

The owner is himself a model builder and is knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to chat with. Overall this place is easy to recommend. When you're driving by, go slow because it's easy to miss the store. It's on one side of a strip mall and given the nearby tree coverage it's easy to miss.

In the gaming area, I saw more packaged "complete sets" of the games with numerous expansion sets, something I personally find preferable to lots and lots and lots of space devoted to expansion sets. I only wish they opened a little earlier in the day on weekdays.
