Had a stopover in Asheville and decided to check out a local comic shop. I happened to bring a dozen of my comics from the 60s for possible sale. I arrived and spoke with the owner briefly, then left my books for her to check out while I browsed the store. I must say I was amazed at how well the store was laid out. Plenty of room to browse the different areas and sections. All areas clearly marked and arranged by themes. Most comic stores tend to be crammed into tight spaces and claustrophobic but this store was a pleasure to go through Nice selection of back issues and current issues, figurines, posters, graphic novels, games, and much more. And very reasonable prices too. Highly recommend if you’re in the Asheville area, check it out! Oh, the very knowledgeable owner and I came to a fair deal for a dozen of my books!

While the store has a wide variety of collectibles for kids of all ages, it has also become a gathering place for gamers. Weekly events usually include Magic: The Gathering, Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, and a variety of other card games and board games.
Went with my grown son to Crunch Time Sports in Raleigh, NC, and I swear my son was like a little kid again in this store! Collectors of sports cards or Pokémon should definitely put this place on their radar. I was introduced to John (I’m not sure if he’s the owner), and what an amazing man! Friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming to everyone who walked through the door. I loved watching my son explore the inventory and seeing John interact with grown men and women, as well as kids and teenagers. The best part? John treated everyone the same — making each person feel like the most important one in the room. Good old-fashioned professionalism combined with genuine friendliness. HIGHLY recommend! Thanks for your help today!
Me and my wife are on vacation from Orlando, FL and I spot this gem as we were driving by. The owner whose name I wish I had asked is an amazing person, kind, knowledgeable and proud of his store. To me it felt like a time capsule, reliving some of my fondest childhood memories and I felt safe to do so. It became the highlight of my trip. You’ll find every kind of game console along with their games, Funkos, different kinds of memorabilia, Pokemon trading cards and more. Words can’t describe how great of a time me and my wife had. Sir, if you’re reading this, thank you for your time and kindness. You have an amazing store and a great personality to elevate it further. We’ll be back!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Special Card Shop Experience! We visited Curveball Cards today, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we walked in, the owner was incredibly kind—not just to me, but especially to my 11-year-old son. He took the time to talk with him, noticed his love for Charizard, and generously gifted him a few cards that made his whole day. What really stood out was how genuine and welcoming the atmosphere was. He even let my son purchase packs that he wasn’t originally planning to sell, just to make sure he walked away with something he was excited about. As a parent, it meant a lot to see someone go out of their way to make my child feel seen and appreciated. We had a great time, and this is exactly the kind of small business worth supporting. If you're looking for a local card shop with heart, passion, and an awesome selection, Curveball Cards is the place to go. Highly recommend!
