wow this shop looks incredible congrats to Geoff on this!
I'm a Singaporean and it really excites me to see Geoff's dreams come true. We don't have a huge card-collecting community in Singapore, but it is slowly growing. It is so heart warming to see people just hanging out in the store. I hope one day I can be there at the store, to make some friends and just talk about cards.
Singaporean here as well, Our community is growing slowly but surely! Maybe in the future Singapore might be the next S.E.A location for CardsHQ 😄
Singaporean here as well. We have a healthy pokemon tcg community but not sports cards
shoves the kid out of the way, "hold on, they got a big hit??!!"
Maybe he heard 4 or 5: "Lets GO'(s)!!!"
Even with all the hate, you keep pressing forward to help change the hobby for the better! Keep grinding and even if this endeavor doesn't pan out, you've made some moves that will make a difference in how we look at hobby shops!
If you notice ALL the haters are guys that didn't fit in well in high school. The guys that had to act like they are smarter than everyone and that's why they don't fit in. None of them ever have the nuts to let the people they trash have a real face to face with them.
Thank you!

@@jcbuckeyeallot of it is jealousy, comes with every business , business is cutthroat and seems to mainly be about enticing people into buying stuff it’s just the world we live in every one is freinds with customers until they have no money and then they are ignored , 99% of the haters are broke and don’t understand the world we live in
Amen!
As someone who has grown up in Atlanta area, interested in tcg playing and collecting since I was a kid, this was one of my favorite shops to enter in a long time. 1. The employees helping with trade ins and sales had great knowledge of the cards, and if you go in looking to, they give incredible trade in value (about 20-40% higher than other stores in the area). 2. They have an incredible selection on not only sports, but other tcgs such as pokemon, yugiho, one piece, etc. 3. The experience of getting to watch as many openings as you can (depending on how many people are ripping for whatnot in their private booths) allows you to watch people pull the grails we all want, while experiencing the authentic reaction of excitement someone gets as they pull that grail. If you are in Georgia and love the hobby, I absolutely recommend checking this shop out.
I love your modern insight to the importance of the online sales which will help supplement the high costs of keeping a physical store going. Ingenious!!! It was really cool seeing your family and how much they support you. You are truly a blessed man. Congratulations on everything!
making everything digital is way to go. One of my local stores has everything in store listed on a site and you can check on pc in store. So much easier than going through bins to look.
its smart, amazon and netflix destroyed entire industries through offering services online. RIP blockbuster.
Community and experience. Great to see this being valued at your shop!
WHAT. A. FUN. VIDEO!
A few times each year, I go through waves of the hobby on and off, and currently IT's ON! So, I'm catching up what I missed over the winter from my favourite creators in the hobby... I am thrilled for you, your partners, and your team! Super cool seeing BTS like this.
I am all for Hockey items, hahahaha.
His daughter “it’s from da wholeee family” over and over sooo adorable ❤️
Love the family interaction. The fact that your wife had the biggest smile of anybody means you must be doing something right. Dream shop for sure. Hope you all bring liquidity to the hobby, a lot of collectors have cards to sell but feel stuck.
Thank you for taking the hobby to the next level and look forward to one day traveling to Atlanta to go to your store and then visit the Atlanta Aquarium. Also thank you for what you do for the kids in the hobby.
Shop looks amazing man, love the positivity you bring to the hobby keep doing great things
Thanks for all the hard work you have been doing for this hobby!!
Keep it up!!!
Loved the peek! Your passion and dedication shine through. Wishing you continued success!
Geoff, you have a beautiful family my friend! Great looking store! Ignore the jealous people and keep doing what your doing! Can't wait to corpse see in person!
Geoff & Team, Atlanta is blessed to have your new card business located in their city. Congratulations on your opening. This is so wonderful for collectors of all ages to have access to everything you will offer in this hobby. Donnie- W.V. 🇺🇲
Wow, very nice card shop! Good luck ! I love seeing people open and grow a business in this country. Very exciting.

Kudos to you and your team. Cards HQ looks like a special place.
Store looks great, living your dreams! Fantastic vibes only wished I lived in the states to see such commitment to the cards community store honestly looks amazing!
The growth, both personally and professionally, over the past 5 years has been nothing short of inspirational. Thank you for continuing to inspire the next generation of collectors, Geoff!
simply amazing looking store. WOW! Way to take it up an extra level!
Love the content! Good luck with the shop. I hope to get to come check it out some day
I look at your videos and you look like a honest man and humble to well deserve. salute
Huge fan of the store. Mostly into Pokémon stuff but even walking around and checking everything out once a week after work has been fun!
congrats to your achievement as a card collector community
I appreciate the transparency and approach with your Journey truly inspiring KEEP IT UP me & my cru will swing by and support the community soon! 🙌🔥🙌
Major congratulations. Praying nothing bad happens to the store. I hope you have the army guarding that store 24/7. Criminals are very brazen these days.
Simply put, CONGRATS!
Liked and subscribed just based on the passion for the hobby alone. People like you are why these hobbies are so great. It doesn't matter if its sports cards, fishing, fitness, miniature gaming, sewing, deep sea diving, the people who put in the hours, sacrifice, commit, honour the hobbies and promote the growth are the reason casuals like myself can dip in and out and find happiness and contentment. That mental break from life and work is necessary for all of us, so thanks for all of it. And if you turn a profit in the process you damn well deserve it so nobody better be hating on the 'business' side of things. If you are then you might as well get mad at Kellogs when you buy a box of cereal or the power company when you flick your lights on. Also as a side note, beautiful family, congrats man. If you take nothing else away from this, 20:37 time stamp take a look at the way your wife is looking at you. Greatest reward you could ask for right there.
Nice job guys can't wait to fly in and check it out !!!
Fantastic effort to all who made the store happen. I hope to visit some day and enjoy the atmosphere! Well done!
Thinking about flying out to visit the shop! Can’t wait to add to my card collection. 👍🏼💪🏼
Can’t wait to come and visit with my son. Congrats!

I love the leadership shown here. The teamwork here is great to see.
Congrats Jeff and team HQ. Look forward to my visit there one day

"u kill a roach with raid, u kill a hater by getting paid" fucc the haters as long as u are getting they gonna throw shade my mann, if u made it this far thank u for staying with me on what I wanted to share with u & congrats again mann CON-GRAD-U-A-TION'S ONCE AGAIN, GOD BLESS !

Man, what a store!!!!! Geoff has done a TON for the hobby!
What a brilliant video. Great advice, simple and practical.
Been following this channel since it only has under 10K subs... look at you now Geoff!!! Congrats on this big achievement, well deserved!
Great job on the editing on this. Really tells the story!
Congrats man, I’ve been following you since the start and it’s insane to see how far you have come. You not only got me in to the hobby, but you gave me access to some the business skills many people take years to develop. So from the bottom of my heart thank you, and I hope you continue to inspire many more in the future 🤍
Amazing job congratulations ❤
I wish you much success the store looks great !!
Geoff, I wanted to let you know I appreciate all your content. One of the major reasons I got back into cards. Keep up the great content!
Keep up the great work.
Great stuff man! Love to see entrepreneurs doing big things 💪💯
Appreciate it!
Congrats Geoff!!
Congrats on the opening!
Congratulations Geoff on super nice card shop, beautiful wife and family, Geoff for President! :)
Congratulations to you and your family. Beautiful
"2 hours till showtime"... I know you're stoked and invested a lot into this, but the people coming in are thinking "card shop". Don't over-manage, micro-manage or put too much pressure on employees and customers. If you want it to feel like a place to hang and chill, that's called 'home'. Let it organically grow, like a home, nurture it yes, but don't let it overextend you or your family (in store or 'home'). Best of luck and remember the feeling of the card store you first worked in, and card stores you wen to as a kid!
The fam was my fav part. Congrats
Outro music sounded familiar, its the music Ryan from Cardcollector2 uses!!! 😁 You have a beautiful family Geoff, don't ever let the shitheads of the internet get you down. Hope to see more videos of the shop and customer interactions, this video was very well put together.
Congrats on the successful opening. Good luck 🍀 with the future
My cousin and I had a dream when we were kids for exactly this. This is awesome. I hope the shop does well! I wish I had the money to open up a local joint but I'll settle for a tiny youtube channel lol.
This place looks sick!! I don’t even really collect!
But you did an amazing job.
Probably nothing exists like this anywhere else.
Congrats i wish u success 🙌
I don’t agree with everything you do and say, but I 100% respect the hustle and grind.
Congratulations!! I will visit one day and spend my money here. 100%
SUPER CONGRATS🎉💰💯
congrats! This is the best card store in the World!!!!!!!!!!!! WoW
I'm really glad you are still able to have a great relationship with Joe! He could have easily been petty about it, he is a big man.
Joe Davis is a class act
who
Why would dude be petty about him opening a shop
Not sure why there are some haters. All I see is a guy who is passionate about sports cards. Keep up the great work!.
What a wonderful store...only if their was one in the Detroit area...PERFECT 🎉
