Card shops in Kitchener and London?

[Craig2]

I'm heading to Ontario for the next week or so, and I'd like to check out some of their local shops. Anybody know of some good places in either of those two cities?

In London, I suggest Fresher Sports Cards. Lots of singles and great prices on boxes.

I know of one in Guelph, think it's called Martin's sports card, mostly deal with older stuff though, some cheap factory sets/old boxes though that are fun to rip open, if looking for new stuff expect to buy a whole box from them, normally don't have boxes to buy loose packs from. Hope that helps, also check out the SCF list of card stores

Its just west of Southdale and Wellington. To be more specific its Southdale and Montgomery Road.

Is Freshers in the plaza where there used to be (or may still be) a grocery store? I think at one time it was an IGA......

Haven't lived in London in a long time, obviously.

i believe so...its a giant tiger now...i could be wrong about it being an IGA at one point...but theres definitely a giant tiger in the same plaza

Thanks - not far from where I grew up.

It would be so nice to live once again in an area with local shops, shows, etc.......one of these days.

I can suggest a couple for Kitchener/Waterloo -- first would be Kitchener Coin (http://www.kitchenercoin.on.ca/) as well as J&J Cards and Collectibles (http://www.jjcards.com/shop/)..

Enjoy!
