Freeman's Sports Cards & Collectibles

Third Avenue buyer's shop where Huntington collectors bring sports card lots, toy collections and old video games to move — weekday-only, noon to six.

Freeman's occupies a stretch of 3rd Avenue that has quietly become Huntington's card row, and its business skews toward the buy side of the counter. Sports cards are the core — modern boxes, singles runs, and vintage that turns over as collections come through the door — but the shop also takes in toy collections and video games, which means the inventory looks different month to month depending on what someone walked in with.

That churn is the appeal for anyone who likes digging. A shop built on collection buyouts does not have a static planogram; the sports card Huntington regulars talk about finding here is usually something that was not on the shelf last visit. Sealed wax, hobby boxes and supplies round out what is on hand day to day.

Schedule accordingly, because the hours are the tightest constraint. Freeman's runs Monday through Friday, 12PM to 6PM, and is closed both Saturday and Sunday — unusual for a card shop, and a trap for weekend visitors. A weekday lunch hour or a late-afternoon stop is the play. Street parking on 3rd Avenue is generally available, and the shop sits within a couple of blocks of two other card destinations, so a single trip downtown can cover several counters.

The Google footprint is small: 3.5 stars across just six reviews, which is far too thin a sample to read as a verdict either way. It is better understood as a shop that does most of its business by relationship and word of mouth rather than by walk-in traffic. If you are selling — a box of 80s and 90s sports cards, a bin of old figures, a stack of cartridges — it is worth a call to 304-416-3631 before you haul anything in.

Go in expecting a working buy/sell counter rather than a showroom, and it delivers what it is set up to do.
