◆ Tampa, FL · est. The Cartel
Every collection
starts with one pull.
The Card Cartel — Tampa's vintage & modern trading card crew. Raw singles to gem-mint slabs to sealed product. We buy, we sell, we trade, and we host the shows where Tampa Bay collectors do the same.
Raw to grail.
What's in the case. Sorted by energy. Sleeve up.

Vintage vs Modern.
◆ Era
Vintage
The cardboard you grew up on. WOTC-era classics, 90s and 2000s sets, the nostalgia hits.
◆ Era
Modern
Alt arts, chase slabs, the new hotness — graded fresh and market-priced.
Most vendors pick a side. We never could.
Bring a binder.
Leave happy.
Buy
Hunting something specific? Tell us. If it's not in the case, the Cartel knows where it is.
Sell
Collections, slabs, sealed — fair, fast offers, no lowballs. That's why people come back.
Trade
Trading is the heart of this hobby. Bring your binder to any show; the table's always open.
We don't just go to the show.
We host it.
The Card Cartel runs local card show events in Tampa Bay where collectors meet up to buy, sell, and trade with tons of other vendors. Grail hunters, binder kids, first-timers — everyone pulls something.
