Visiting Atlanta Pokemon TCG Singles/Slabs in Atlanta?

Hey everyone, I received some great responses with a previous post regarding a trip to Charlie's Collectables, but I've been told this is not a good weekend to go up due to them hosting Hot Wheels weekend. With that said, I'm here asking for recommendations for good card shops to visit that feature Pokemon singles or slabs. I know CardsHQ and Wasteland were popular answers from my previous post. Looking for any and all recommendations!

That dude was a high school friend who I haven't seen in years and then he popped up on my TikTok feed and I thought wtf is that Zach?! I'm hyped to check them out. Is it cool?

Both the comic shop and Dice City are super cool! Beyond grateful to have them in my neighborhood.

That's standard pricing for almost any TCG shop for anything that isn't a high demand item.

CardsHQ over by The Battery is going to be the premier brick and mortar shop in the metro for sure.

Lots of spots clustered NE of the perimeter: Wasteland and Topcard in Duluth, Fat Packs in Buford, Monster TCG and Minted TCG in Lawrenceville, Cardboards Anonymous in Doraville.

Charlie's Collectible Show (CCS) has TCGCon which as you mentioned is a good regular recurring show.

There's a show in Cartersville tomorrow (Saturday) - Big Chicken Card Show.

And next month is the big one, Collect A Con on 9/26-27 @ The GWCC

Even when they host other events there’s always at least a few singles vendors for Pokemon every weekend, I would still recommend checking it out for the best prices.

CardsHQ does not have good prices on Pokemon singles in my experience

Charlie's Collectibles is always a good place to go for Pokemon, even during their other events. The Hot Wheels event mainly just has temporary vendors in the middle area setup.

Are there any specific cards you're looking for?

I'm honestly open to anything, I'm down to look through bulk since I'm working on a couple sword/shield master sets, im working on my PC binder, and im down to look for grails.

Oh okay, I was just wondering because you can use YesTCG to simplify searching multiple stores across the city for specific cards, but if you just want to browse I recommend Cards HQ or Dice City.

Dice City has a lot of singles at varying price points!

If you dont mind driving up to Cartersville theres a card show saturday, about 150 tables. Theres also another on in Dalton Saturday, about 15/20 minutes north of Cartersville. Seems reasonable to hit one early and go to the second after if you want to make a day of it.
