Hub City Collectibles

Pokemon-heavy collectibles shop on 50th Street in Lubbock with a big range from older sets to new releases and a table-ready, family-friendly crowd.

Hub City Collectibles on 50th Street is the sort of Lubbock card shop where the staff will walk a kid through building a deck. Reviewers describe an employee helping a son choose the exact Pokemon cards for his list, and others call it a place to chat, play and make memories rather than just a counter transaction.

Pokemon takes the lead. Visitors mention a massive selection spanning older sets through current releases, which is useful for returning players hunting nostalgia as well as newcomers grabbing packs. Trading card game play happens in the store, and the owners and staff are named in reviews as welcoming from the moment you walk in.

A small caution from feedback: check pricing and tax at the register so that cash expectations are clear. Otherwise the shop earns praise for patience and helpfulness, which matters when you are shopping for children.

Hours run daily: 11AM to 7PM Monday through Saturday and noon to 7PM Sunday, so there is no closed day to work around. Weekend afternoons draw families. The store is at 2606 50th St, Lubbock, TX 79413; call 806-370-0057 to confirm any specific product before heading over.
