The Emporium Sports 5.0(10)

The address on file for The Emporium is 3755 Gulf Breeze Pkwy Ste F, Gulf Breeze, FL 32563. Gulf Breeze holds 2 listings here — 1 independent shop and 1 national chain location — and this one appears first on that page. Order on a city page comes from rating shrunk toward the site-wide average by review volume, so a 5.0 from nine reviews does not automatically lead. Of the 2 Gulf Breeze listings carrying a rating, this one is second by review count, with 10 behind its 5.0 stars. The closest other cities with listings are Pensacola, about 15 miles out with 9 shops, and Mary Esther at roughly 18 miles. The directory files this listing under sports cards. That is a classification applied to the business record, not the result of anyone checking a display case.

Measured from its coordinates, the nearest other shops in the directory are GameStop (under a mile) and GameStop (11 miles). Statewide, Florida accounts for 349 independent listings spread over 150 cities, plus 130 chain locations. The widest the posted week gets is 10 AM at one end and 7 PM at the other. The record carries a phone number and a website, so there are two ways to check something before setting out. What the directory does not hold is inventory: there is no record here of what is in the case on a given day, which sets are open, or what the shop pays for cards. Call before you drive.
