Day in the Life of a New Card Shop Owner (First Day!)

[@DanSurprise]

I'm a Singaporean and it really excites me to see Geoff's dreams come true. We don't have a huge card-collecting community in Singapore, but it is slowly growing. It is so heart warming to see people just hanging out in the store. I hope one day I can be there at the store, to make some friends and just talk about cards.

[@ClarenceSF4]

Singaporean here as well, Our community is growing slowly but surely! Maybe in the future Singapore might be the next S.E.A location for CardsHQ 😄

[@thedistanttraveler6561]

Singaporean here as well. We have a healthy pokemon tcg community but not sports cards

[@krystaldiamonds5145]

shoves the kid out of the way, "hold on, they got a big hit??!!" Maybe he heard 4 or 5: "Lets GO'(s)!!!"

[@MYSTlC7]

wow this shop looks incredible congrats to Geoff on this!

[@melvinsmiley5295]

I love your modern insight to the importance of the online sales which will help supplement the high costs of keeping a physical store going. Ingenious!!! It was really cool seeing your family and how much they support you. You are truly a blessed man. Congratulations on everything!

[@Tolandruth]

making everything digital is way to go. One of my local stores has everything in store listed on a site and you can check on pc in store. So much easier than going through bins to look.

[@cosmickid11]

its smart, amazon and netflix destroyed entire industries through offering services online. RIP blockbuster.

[@card_zar]

Even with all the hate, you keep pressing forward to help change the hobby for the better! Keep grinding and even if this endeavor doesn't pan out, you've made some moves that will make a difference in how we look at hobby shops!

[@jcbuckeye]

If you notice ALL the haters are guys that didn't fit in well in high school. The guys that had to act like they are smarter than everyone and that's why they don't fit in. None of them ever have the nuts to let the people they trash have a real face to face with them.

[@SportsCardInvestor]

Thank you!

@@jcbuckeyeallot of it is jealousy, comes with every business , business is cutthroat and seems to mainly be about enticing people into buying stuff it’s just the world we live in every one is freinds with customers until they have no money and then they are ignored , 99% of the haters are broke and don’t understand the world we live in

[@aarongrant2024]

Amen!

[@mattrosenstein1815]

As someone who has grown up in Atlanta area, interested in tcg playing and collecting since I was a kid, this was one of my favorite shops to enter in a long time. 1. The employees helping with trade ins and sales had great knowledge of the cards, and if you go in looking to, they give incredible trade in value (about 20-40% higher than other stores in the area). 2. They have an incredible selection on not only sports, but other tcgs such as pokemon, yugiho, one piece, etc. 3. The experience of getting to watch as many openings as you can (depending on how many people are ripping for whatnot in their private booths) allows you to watch people pull the grails we all want, while experiencing the authentic reaction of excitement someone gets as they pull that grail. If you are in Georgia and love the hobby, I absolutely recommend checking this shop out.

[@comebackcardcollector]

Love the family interaction. The fact that your wife had the biggest smile of anybody means you must be doing something right. Dream shop for sure. Hope you all bring liquidity to the hobby, a lot of collectors have cards to sell but feel stuck.

[@sjsyankeespc]

Shop looks amazing man, love the positivity you bring to the hobby keep doing great things

[@michaelshark1]

Thank you for taking the hobby to the next level and look forward to one day traveling to Atlanta to go to your store and then visit the Atlanta Aquarium. Also thank you for what you do for the kids in the hobby.

[@donniecanby9681]

Geoff & Team, Atlanta is blessed to have your new card business located in their city. Congratulations on your opening. This is so wonderful for collectors of all ages to have access to everything you will offer in this hobby. Donnie- W.V. 🇺🇲

[@BrennenL]

WHAT. A. FUN. VIDEO! A few times each year, I go through waves of the hobby on and off, and currently IT's ON! So, I'm catching up what I missed over the winter from my favourite creators in the hobby... I am thrilled for you, your partners, and your team! Super cool seeing BTS like this. I am all for Hockey items, hahahaha.

[@fullhouse7727]

Great family. Cherish the time with them and enjoy your Blessings!

[@jnycards5478]

I love the leadership shown here. The teamwork here is great to see.

[@jeffetech6055]

Love it! Well done Geoff and Team! And I really like how the family come to support, give a cool gift + addition to the shop! My fave part is when your daughter says she wants to help make the price tags for the Pokemon wax. 🙂

[@Gottagetgoodplz]

Simply put, CONGRATS!

[@islandcardcollector]

Awesome job and congrats to the entire CardsHQ team! Can't wait to visit the next time I come through Atlanta!

[@mrdogbees]

Congrats Geoff! Your store looks amazing!

[@scarytime6420]

Store looks great, living your dreams! Fantastic vibes only wished I lived in the states to see such commitment to the cards community store honestly looks amazing!

[@jackorange1882]

Major congratulations. Praying nothing bad happens to the store. I hope you have the army guarding that store 24/7. Criminals are very brazen these days.

[@jaymahnC5]

Amazing! Congrats again.

[@evana6689]

Liked and subscribed just based on the passion for the hobby alone. People like you are why these hobbies are so great. It doesn't matter if its sports cards, fishing, fitness, miniature gaming, sewing, deep sea diving, the people who put in the hours, sacrifice, commit, honour the hobbies and promote the growth are the reason casuals like myself can dip in and out and find happiness and contentment. That mental break from life and work is necessary for all of us, so thanks for all of it. And if you turn a profit in the process you damn well deserve it so nobody better be hating on the 'business' side of things. If you are then you might as well get mad at Kellogs when you buy a box of cereal or the power company when you flick your lights on. Also as a side note, beautiful family, congrats man. If you take nothing else away from this, 20:37 time stamp take a look at the way your wife is looking at you. Greatest reward you could ask for right there.

[@STB_ART90]

Congrats on an amazing accomplishment. Kudos

[@shoeboxmoney466]

Great video it's so beautiful how like-minded individuals created such a wonderful area. I want to attend a card show so I can bring the experience to my community. Sports and family would be elevated and it helps the youth. New jobs and the hobby continues.

[@Drew-qs1lt]

Congrats on the opening 🎉 wish I could visit but I’m excited what the future brings 🙌🏻

[@steveba50]

Great to see the opening went so well lots of smiling faces there. I will be buying from your store as I know it is a name I can trust. A future customer from Australia.

I'm really glad you are still able to have a great relationship with Joe! He could have easily been petty about it, he is a big man.

[@SportsCardInvestor]

Joe Davis is a class act

[@spcrec88]

[@jordanhudson5075]

Why would dude be petty about him opening a shop

[@sg1gamer]

Congratulations and good luck.

This is a special place you guys have created. I am a lifelong Braves fan from Midd Tenn and gonna come check you out next Braves game. Congrats and Good Luck!

[@YoungGunPoker]

Congrats man, I’ve been following you since the start and it’s insane to see how far you have come. You not only got me in to the hobby, but you gave me access to some the business skills many people take years to develop. So from the bottom of my heart thank you, and I hope you continue to inspire many more in the future 🤍

[@Grizzgrizzly1]

Great job on the editing on this. Really tells the story!

[@Doors067]

The cards are great. The concept is amazing. But aint nobody putting a picture of me on a Cornhole Board lol

[@obione279]

Haha you can tell Geoff felt the same way by his response when opening it. "Wow! That's funny. Wow! 😂

[@nikkolas821]

This place looks sick!! I don’t even really collect! But you did an amazing job. Probably nothing exists like this anywhere else.

[@shark52277]

Good luck in this project. I think it could be a positive thing for the hobby. I don't alway6 agree with all your opinions on the hobby but I truly espect that you are trying something new. I do hope to visit.
