Hey guys! Dallas Fort Worth Card Question

[softballa04]

Hey guys. Just moved to Fort Worth but my job is in Dallas. First question:

1.) DO any gas stations sell packs of cards in the DFW area?

2.) Does anyone know of any good card shops?

Needing some help. Thanks guys.,

I'd be interested in this as well considering I've moving down to Fort Worth from Ohio in July!

Hey guys...

Welcome to D/FW from Denver, CO!

I was born in Waco, TX and lived and grew up in the Dallas area from the time I was 3 until 1991 when the Air Force and an ex-wife brought me to Colorado.

D/FW is a great area and there used to be a ton of great shops there... my best suggestion would be check Dex on-line, Yellow Pages on-line, and the Beckett Shop locator:

Baseball Fever-LV
PO Box 560353
The Colony, TX 75056
Ph: 972-625-9601

Cosmic Comics
728 E. Marshall
Grand Prairie, TX 75051
Ph: 1.972.264.0617

Dollars/Cents Coins/Cards
500 N Galloway Ave, Suite 128
Mesquite, TX 75149
Ph: 972-289-7970

Gil's Infield
205 D East Camp Wisdom
Duncanville, TX 75116
Ph: 1.972.709.6055

S M P Sportscards
1671 West NW Highway
Grapevine, TX 76051
Ph: 1.817.251.1752

Those are all ones that come up on the Beckett Dealer Locator that I know are in the Greater D/FW area...

One thing you have to keep in mind - you are moving to a VERY Large Metro area (Dallas County is over 900 Sq Miles itself - basically the STATE of Rhode Island could fit inside of it!) so you may have to do some driving to find good shops. I believe there are still some good one (Lone Star for one) in the Arlington area (where the Rangers play)...

Good luck to you guys... hope you enjoy my hometown!
