Anyone from the Pittsburgh area know any good card shops?

If you ever have time to drive to the South Hills, there's a shop called Collector's Den.

He has a lot of old wax in his shop.

My buddy who owns the shop in Century III Mall actually gets all of his old wax from the guy at Collector's Den.

Make sure you check out Collector's Den hours before you go, he is only open everyone other day of the week. He does have some nice old wax, but you will pay for it.

Good idea, I forgot to mention that. I would actually call just to make sure of the hours.

It's been years since I have set foot in any a shop, so I don't know about the ones Tim and Dave mentioned. But if you're looking for singles and wax primarily, you may be better off checking out one of the local mall shows or the Robert Morris show in May. There are usually 1-2 wax guys at the smaller shows with pretty flexible pricing, and the Robert Morris show usually brings in some bigger national dealers.
