Huge shoutout to Brian! I sold a large multi-franchise collection (Digimon, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Funkos) and the experience was seamless. Brian and his partner are honest, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. The shop has an amazing variety of collectibles beyond just cards, like vintage magazines and more. If you're looking for a hassle-free spot to buy or sell, this is a hidden gem in Riverside. He also does trades and cash deals! 5/5 stars! read more

This hole in the wall is almost exactly that, but don't judge a book by its cover. Inside are some of the nicest people in the card collecting business. Friendly as all get out. Helpful too. My daughter and granddaughter accompanied me on a mission to find specific hard to find Pokémon cards to complete a set. We were able to find 5 or 6 of them. It was so much fun hanging out and ferreting through boxes and boxes of cards. We weren't rushed out and were left to dig at our leisure. I'll return to True to dig, sort, and converse. It's like being a kid again. Quick Tip: No sports cards, but the friendly associates can direct you to where you can find them. Have fun. read more

Have always had a positive experience with this company over the last 7 yrs as a IG customer. And they have a great selection of products to view and buy. When I did run into a problem they have done their best to fix it and make it right read more

This is first time here at this shop, surprisingly they had a great selection of everything! From Pokémon and Andre put us into a new thing ( knights & Summons)! Cant wait to open these packages. Andre was very knowledgeable and helpful.Definitely will be returning. read more

Yeah so years ago I went in with a friend to sell Pokemon cards and said they're useless until he saw a shiny Magikarp and told me he would buy it for $5. My friend said sure and got the $5. I look at the price it's $150. We want our money back. read more

True Collectible - This is the car we sold him - Cards & Stationery Near Me - Riverside, California

The Pokemon packs and boxes are way overpriced! The person working didn't know prices of items and had to google it and then based their price off of whatever they saw as the highest price on their phone. A Pokemon booster box that I can get for $50 at another shop, they wanted over $400 for here. Thats insane. read more

Customer service was okay. When we walked in they just stared at us the whole time. The selection was bad in my opinion, all their shelf's basically empty but they had a good selection of Pokémon cards and comic books. I didn't look at any of the prices of the stuff they had in stock, because they did not have anything I was looking for. I do not recommend if you are looking for action figures, they had nothing. read more

I love this TCG spot, good prices, good variety and selection of products from TCG cards to comics, & good service.

We had amazing service by two of the employees. I am super grateful and will be shopping here again for Japanese Pokemon packs! Thank you!!!! read more

To be perfectly honest, I prefer coming here over Top Deck. They've always been friendly, seem to actually want my business, and the owner (?) even remembered my wife and I and what we were looking for, even though we had only come in once a few weeks prior during a super busy time for them. Both times, she was super helpful, as was the other employee who helped us. There are a lot of display cases with vintage and boxed product, vintage video games, comics, and some miscellaneous stuff. They have a TON of Yugioh and Pokemon to sift through. They even have some Digimon boosters and crossing fingers for more selection of that. :) Prices are pretty fair, especially for boxed/sealed product. Singles prices can fluctuate, but usually they follow market. I'm always late to the party for their Insta deals, but maybe I'll snag one one day. Anyways, we're new to the area and it's nice to have a card shop even my wife is excited to visit! read more

I went here for the first time looking for Pokemon cards, and I was not disappointed. They have a lot of Japanese & Chinese packs. They do not reseal their packs. The guy helping me out offered to open a sealed booster box to pick packs from to prove they are legit. Don't listen to the bad reviews, this place is awesome for TCG collectors. read more

From the moment we walked in everyone was super helpful. They have greatest card selection ever!!! You can't beat their value in cards. I'm going to be back for some more collections. Thank you read more

I called ahead to confirm they had a specific Pokémon card set in stock, and they assured me they did. But when I arrived, I was given three different stories: first, that they had just placed the order and were waiting for it to arrive; then, that they DID have it in the store but couldn't find it; and initially, they said they had it in stock when I called. This blatant dishonesty about their inventory is unacceptable. Needless to say, I left empty-handed and won't be returning. Poor customer service and lack of transparency make it clear they don't prioritize their customers' trust or satisfaction. read more

Friendly staff and good selection of cards , decent pricing as well. The selection of cards was well organized.

Great customer service got a Japanese booster box and pricing was fair , definitely recommend this shop hands down read more

Cool little comic store but after reviewing the prices he told us, it should have been $45 for the comics we purchased but he charged my little brother $65 read more

PACKS ARE RESEALED!!! Clear as day. Also looked at resealed packs online for reference and it checked off all the boxes with glue residue, air bubbles, and not properly secured. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE. THEY ARE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!! read more

The service is no good, took things to trade in was holding big and large amounts of things not one of the 4 employees there even tried to help open the door when they were standing right next to it. Don't bring in things to trade or sell they offer crazy lowballs not worth the time. Packs of cards overpriced compared to market and other card stores. Never went into a worse collectible store than this one. read more

Unfortunately a small collection of comics where every single comic is $10+ which is lowkey ridiculous. Very small room with a large table in front of the comics and the people sitting down have no common sense to scoot out the way not even a little bit. Also has a weird odor read more

Great shop . Great cards . Great service , what more can you ask for I will definitely be coming back here !

This place actually smelled so bad, there's no windows and the floors are sticky and there are no comic books. There's no parking either.

1st of all do not I repeat do not buy they mystery boxes its full of crap they can't sell . When they say its a 150 dollar value they do mean it but full of toys pencils etc that will eventually add up to 150 its pretty clever of them to do that . Great way to get rid of useless inventory/ unsellable items one wants .they have great service though not gonna lie but make sure u inspect there cards they won't tell you theres a nick or scratch here or there they leave that up to you.this isn't bad apples or sour grapes I've been going to there store for about 4 years now its a kool spot just i figured i let everyone know what they been doing since i recommended like around 200-400 people and they all had bad experiences with there mystery boxes and its been coming back to me read more

They have what I need when I need it , inventory is stocked so that's always great for my Pokémon. Collection and I get comics here for cheappppp i always go like 3 hours after there set time to open bc I'm lazy and there always open and it's close to my house keep it up guys read more

Great store lots and lots to buy from. Customer service great! Great atmosphere. Would sell here again. Good prices.

Despite all the negative reviews on here, I wanted to give the place a chance. I called twice before I left my house, no answer (assuming they're busy) upon arrival the store is still closed and it's about an hour after opening. So I'm standing here in the rain and try to call them 2 more times just in case they're in the back, no answer. Upon writing this I thought maybe they were in the restroom and tried calling once more and still no answer. Also, be aware parking here is awful and a bunch of homeless people roaming around read more

GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Grat collection. Awaime people. You should really check it out

amazing customer service, woman was very friendly to tell us to enjoy ourselves while we're selecting through cards. very plentiful selection to choose from whether it be singles, booster packs, and graded slavs. would recommend coming again read more

Well let me start here. Bought a card through their IG page that looked Mint however when it got here there was a little knick that I didn't like. I messaged the seller (Brian with True Collectable) who was completely understanding and advised me to return the card. Upon returning the card I received a Full Refund. I would like to visit the shop once in person and personally see the cards but don't be afraid to buy online they're completely honest and Legit! Cant wait to visit the shop in person read more

I would never tolerate scamming practice. The people always speak the truth! I don't normally review unless it's like "wow!" Or "wtf?" But this is beyond ridiculous! A reputable hobby business that carry higher end collectible SCAMMING someone online out of $12,000??? Hell no!! Business owner got caught red handed for posting the $12000 stolen item, got called out then take it down within hour, make up excuses to cover up... then decided to send the card back to the rightful owner? It's too late! You effed up! AVOID THIS BUSINESS AT ALL COST!! read more

Literally the worst card shop ever . Everything is marked up at 80-90% over market value . Complete rip off , I understand it's a business and you need to make money but there's a fine line between 20% mark up and over charging . Something to add that may not be true anymore but I have witnessed the owner a few years ago buy stolen product and selling it for more money despite never getting at the original price ( and with tax lmao). Ask me how I know this ? I have witnessed multiple times sketchy ass people with cards in garage bags( like cholos and shit, there's no reason for cholos to be selling Pokémon cards lmao unless they stole it and are selling them) selling to the owner and a week later those items are up on display. It's a nice place to visit and look around, but please ... Save your money read more

I enjoyed my time here, there was a variety of options. They were super kind and helpful.

Depressing! Collectibles here = Pokémon and that's about all. Not much about the shop is inviting, ugly aesthetic, no AC, blaring TV, a bunch of boxes and cheap metal shelves, and just modern plastic stuff. Don't come here for comics - bad organization, tiny selection, 1990s - 2000s era comics that would be $0.50 elsewhere are $8. read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would! Really takes a lot for me to go out of my way to write a review good or bad. They scammed me. Purchased a card from their IG a couple months ago and never received it. They said it got lost in the mail that they sent out another one which was over two weeks ago. Coincidence that it got lost in the mail a second time? Don't think so. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! They just took my money. So many better shops that are friendly and give amazing service. This is by far the worst place to get any collectible. read more

This place is a joke hear me out I understand if your not knowledge about cards but when your being stubborn and don't want to look stupid because you were wrong like the guy/girl thought I had a regular rare instead of a secret pharaoh rare slifer and still offered me 60$ because he was to stubborn to realize it wasn't the card he was looking up. Their prices ? Oh lord they got vivid voltage for 10$ . Customer service so horrible how do you own a business my guy ? read more

You want flipper prices come here and get ripped off. How do you sell Pokémon that are still available at triple the price. You're better off buying from Mercari honestly. read more

Customer service sucks. No one greets. No one acknowledged me. Had to ask for help instead of being asked. Prices are ok. Not enough English packs and they don't sell booster boxes of TCG's which is stupid. Overall it's pretty disappointing. Been here twice and it always sucked. read more

Worst store I have been too. I have tried, and gone to store a few times. So, this not one experience. They have books listed and displayed with prices but refuse to sell. I do not know if it is a discriminatory thing or just plain poor business practice. It is also a noisey chaotic mess and the staff have no idea how to handle comics or use customer service. read more

Been here twice, it's alright. It's fine if you're not greeted and you have to ask. I like being left alone to browse. Got some Pokémon collectors boxes that were normal price. Most card shops don't have the prices displayed. I'm that customer that asks and asks on all kinds of stuff. Haha. read more

The location is dope plenty of place to play, great option to cater to the customer by providing playmates. The location has a lot of parking so no need to worry about that. All players were very nice:), I also really liked the fact that there is countdown clock for the tournaments. Don't know if there is new staff at this location but it felt like one of the store attendants was not very knowledgeable of he tournament rules or how to use the pricing tools. Nonetheless I am very happy to have found this place :) read more

Scammer. Proven that he stole a high value card from someone. Around 12,000 in costs and blatantly stole it. Avoid this business at all costs. read more
