Every week at the shop

Trade nights, breaks & locals

The back table is the reason half this shop exists. Nothing here needs a membership, a booking or a buy-in unless it says so — turn up.

Trade night

Thursdays, and it's the night the shop is loudest. People spread binders down the whole back table and swap until we turn the lights off. It costs nothing, you don't need to know anybody, and it is far and away the easiest first visit if you've never been in before.

Group breaks

Wednesday nights at 7, run off the counter so you can stand there and watch it happen. Random teams or pick-your-team depending on the box, and the last Wednesday of the month is a bigger football break.

Cards from your spots get sleeved and toploadered before they leave the counter. Can't make it in? Tell us before the box is opened and we'll put yours aside.

Locals

Friday evenings, rotating between whatever's got a crowd that month. We keep the singles stocked around what's running, so you can fix a deck an hour before it starts instead of the night before.

First time coming in?

You don't need to bring anything and you don't need to know anyone. Thursday is the night to start on — say it's your first time and someone will make room at the table.
