What a great place. Perry and his staff are top notch. They do a great job of keeping hard to find penny sleeves and toploaders in stock for their customers. Always a pleasant experience. Thanks!
I visited this place years ago and was I surprised when I visited recently. They expanded their business and doubled their size. It was an absolute treat when I went through the place checking out all the collectibles in the display case and up on the shelf. For any collector looking for a nice place in the Tampa Bay area....by all means check out Wonder Water Sports and Collectibles. The staff is nice and very helpful as well.
I highly recommend this place to any one who likes to collect cards, Im a avid hockey card collector and most my collection has been bought from here, the customer service is amazing! They have very good prices (especially if you get a membership) as far as hobby cards go (Im not sure how that stuff stands when it comes to resale). I live pretty far, its maybe an hour drive to get there, but its totally worth it.
I have personally visited every sports card store in the Pinellas County area and this place is hands down the best. The customer service was second to none. They are extremely knowledgeable and took the time to answer any and all questions that I had. If you are in this industry and you havent been to this store do yourself a favor and check it out. I drove over 40 minutes to get there and it was definitely worth it.
Wow! They had such a huge selection it was crazy. They had lots of hockey, football, and basketball cards, they even had tennis and golf cards! They had a very nice owner and great costumer service. They also had lots of comics and had multiple sections for Tampa bay cards! They also have a free pile for kids 15 and under. They even sold hockey pucks, cereal boxes, and old tickets from games. Everything is super organized and mostly good quality. 10/10 Will go again!!!
Stopped by the store in person. Big place with plenty of stuff for all types of collectors.Only gripe I have is that when I asked a question about availability of 1956 topps baseball commons, the guy working just said we have a lot of cards, look online and handed me one of his business cards and walked away. Really?!The whole point of physically going to a brick and mortar store is to bypass the internet. Even if i had a million plus card inventory, I would still have a basic understanding of what I had or at least help the only customer in the store at the time find what they need. Who knows, maybe the guy was new.but I doubt it.
Staff and customers are knowledgeable and friendly. Met some nice comic fans. Diffently going to makie this comic store another visit and a regular. Check out the place comic fans. They also have sports cards and memorabilia as well.
Ive visited this Comic (and more within) store with my grandson. We both love it. Stop in&check out their merchandise. Theres something for everyone and the staff are great too☺
Parry is one of the nicest most knowledge able guys in the card world. The only place I go to get my fix of baseball cards, they have everything you need and they are always helpful ..
Amazing store amazing owner and employees I would definitely do business here again!
Best place hands down! great staff and great products
Absolutely phenomenal hobby shop! Parry is a fantastic owner who is informative, honest and extremely helpful. They have the best of any sport between collectibles, trading cards and autographs. Not to mention a plethora of comic books for fans of that hobby. They even grade cards as well. Super simple, convenient and easy process. Bring in what you want sent out - fill out a form, pay the grading fee (which is pretty much the same anywhere give or take but convenience is key) and they’ll call you when they come back. Being originally from New England it is the best shop I’ve ever personally been to. I highly recommend!
This shop is great! They had everything I was looking for and took the time to help my ten year old pick out comics she’d be into! 👍🏻
Great shop! Visited for the first time a little over a week ago, I’ve been back multiple times since then. Best prices in the area as long as you pay for the very reasonable membership. Owners are very helpful and knowledgeable. Would recommend to any collectors looking for a legitimate shop!
Great selection of comics and sports cards. Has sections for other things like Pops, Pokémon, DnD, etc as well. Very friendly staff!
Great selection. Good prices and the membership makes it worth going back all the time.
Thank you Great store loaded with everything in it highly recommended
Great place to shop for baseball/football cards. Best prices in town. VIP membership is awesome
This place is the only place to find what youre looking for and the prices can not be beat. Owner and all employees are very friendly and helpful. Best hobby shop in Pinellas County, maybe all of florida.
The workers here are great, super friendly and nice. They always have hockey card stuff available along with many other cards. My go to place for cards!
Decided to dive back into collecting cards after 20 years of being away. Hiked out to this shop from Lutz yesterday with my daughter. It was a great time, old feel like the old shops, not enough space for all the inventory, amazing. My 9 yo daughter started collecting Magic and gives me an excuse to buy sports cards. The nice lady behind the counter was very knowledgeable and very helpful, i was even lucky enough to witness 4 boxes of National Treasure 2020 NBA to be cracked open. I even bought their membership discount, if I get back there or not to use it, It was good to support a local shop.
Very Impressive what they have done with this shop, they have everything you need Tcg wise, dont have to order legit toploaders off amazon anymore. But on the phone the guy told me they were charging 5-6 dollars per pack. I get there and the cheapest set was 11.46 a pack. I get inflation and demand right now but there charging 300 a booster box! If you have the membership for 25 for the year. It seems like you get an extra dollar off at best. I was very impressed with the customer service was above and beyond. A lot of card shops treat you very poorly so this was refreshing. Plus the shop is huge and has everything you need. There baseball and basketball cards maybe decently priced. But there taking advantage charging scalping prices on pokemon tcg right now acting like there not. Ehg. Has potential
Owner is nice and informative, have been here a few times and the pricing is the fairest I can find for a local game store in my area.
Perry was absolutely amazing with the education he provided. The shop is by far the best I’ve seen. Excellent prices and service!
Its a pretty cool place and all the staff is super friendly and helpful and nice.
Top Notch Card Shop!
Wasted my time just walking in the got poor service they just looked at my cads and denied them from the start and they really didnt explain much. I have some great cards worth money and l was still denied so l know it was not about the cards. I know that l have cards of high value and a few psa. 10 s. I will not ever return to this location again.
Very Nice people, alot of stuff for the collector of sports card and Comic books. A must visit.
Took time out of there day to explain to me the difference between retail and hobby everyone was super nice I bought my first pack of hobby football and got a nice numbered rookie card overall very satisfied
Amazing service beautiful place Favourite card store of all time
What a cool spot! There is definitely something for everyone here. FAIR prices, especially if you because a member* you receive discounted pricing.
They have everything that you want. Great service.
Came here for the first time on Saturday and they were the most helpful honest and nice people I have ever met. Wish I could give them 6 stars. I would come back even though they are an hour away from me. Good competitive prices on cards. They have tons of cards and just as many comic books. I appreciated their discount that they have (25$ a year gets u a discount on almost all items). Tons of card collecting supplies and they made sure I had the right sizes. Best LCS in the Tampa area would go again.
Great place. Walked in with some cards to sell and was provided excellent advice and recommendations. Will go back.
Best card shop Ive ever been too
First time visitor, will definitely return again soon. Thank you for the help and pleasant shopping experience!
Very helpful had what I needed. Quick.
Wonder Water is incredible. The owner Perry couldnt be nicer. Not only does he take care of his VIP customers but he runs a great store and is as nice as they come. Very knowledgeable and he can answer any question you have. If you are a REAL collector, there is no better place in the Greater Tampa Bay Area to get your stuff. Highly Recommend to all collectors
Great ball card / comic store with packs, boxes and supplies and also offers card submittal services to Beckett for grading. Its so nice to have an actual card shop locally. Knowledgeable owner, nice place.
Best people working there
Great service and amazing knowledge
Its an amazing card store. Plenty of selection with good prices. The owners are very nice and very helpful.
Came down to visit family and stopped by the shop for a little while. I had messaged the owner asking to have something set aside and sure enough everything was all wrapped up and ready to roll, and I got a great deal on a hobby box at an extremely fair price. Excellent service, staff was very welcoming and sociable. Looking forward to my next visit for sure.
This was a very neat and organized memorabilia store. Had everything I was looking for. Great selection for just about any sport for any team and all the major players. It was clean and there was great people that helped out. Overall it was a good place to comfortably shop around!!!!
Very nice store. Not the biggest selection of comics but, they do have a good amount of books here. Not as much as other comic book stores in the area .The shopping atmosphere is very comfortable. They are a very good sports card store. Large selection of products. The staff is very nice, knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend checking them out for sure!!
Grew up going here and have always felt welcomed. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Worth stopping by if you like anything comics/sports cards related.
Love this place! Super friendly and go above and beyond to try to help you get what you want. Membership is awesome too, actually get something out of it unlike another comic book store.
Perry and the gang are part of the reason I own my own store. Great service, and always there for the right reason.
Awesome store. Great selection of cards and comics. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely going again.
First time buyer last week, and it will NOT be my last. As a business owner myself, I value customer service and they delivered on that. My cousin told me about this shop and I’m glad he did. Perry, the owner, was very helpful and took his time finding certain card singles I was interested in. Thanks again!
Friendly staff, but they do not have much in terms of hockey cards. Was very dissapointed in the selection and price of packs when i was most recently there. Not sure if ill come back anytime soon.
My go to place for collector supplies!!!Awesome place!
Nice people, very friendly. They basically have everything really set up for EBAY. You just cant go through an individual boxes and shop around. They do have some in a couple 5000 count boxes, but they are $.50 for basically $.05 to $.10 cards. They want you to look everything up on-line, which you can on their tablet, but you have to pay their online prices, which are normally higher than what the card is worth in my opinion. I think you should call to see what you can do before driving there.
Family owned and operated. They used to have multiple locations and since have condensed. Welcoming and knowledgeable. Your wives will hate you because you’ll spend hours there talking with Parry before you even look for what you want! lol I don’t want to tell you what I collect because, I like to keep this place a secret. EXTREMELY FAIR PRICED! Members get hooked up. He wants you to come back and talk and support his business, like any smart businessman would. If you’re looking to just buy occasionally it’s still worth it!!! It’s like 15.00 for the year!
Fantastic company, I ordered a baseball card online & it was a very important card for a dear sick friend back home (we snow bird in Florida for 5 months, live in New York State), & the card arrived the next day ! Theyre fantastic, Happy New Year to this company, I recommend them 1000%, very knowledgeable & friendly also on the phone !!
Great place for all your card collecting needs, they have a membership program which looks like a great deal with discounts on almost everything. We are from out of town or we would have signed up. My boys (8 and 10) loved it.
Guy who waited on me saved me 60 bucks on my purchase. Im looking forward to tearing this topps 2020 baseball jumbo box!
They had a rare trade paperback that I had been searching for 10+ years for in this regard they beat everyone forbidden planet, even Amazon. Organization leaves something to be desired though. Support your local comic book shop. Owners werent creeping on anyone and that is a good thing. People deserve to feel safe when purchasing comics which is sadly a bigger deal than it should be.
Great folks- I go for magic cards mostly, do keep that in mind. This is primarily a sports card, memorabilia, and comic store- there is no sort of organized gaming or social meet ups here. Great prices, tons of card supplies including a huge variety of boxes to store collections in. They have a fair amount of single cards online, and you can pick them up in the store with some email coordination.
You wont find a better cards/ comics shop anywhere ! Parry, and his family, are SO friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Prices are great and selection is awesome.
Great store!
Nerd paradise. I can say that because I am one. Tons of stuff here, I mean, it is packed (yet organized) with unique sports memorabilia, comics, toys, etc.
Helped me look over some old baseball cards once. very nice.
Always very friendly and helpful!
Best sports card shop in the Greater Tampa Bay area. Reminded me of the places I used to frequent 25 years ago and are rarely found today. You could easily spend a entire day browsing their reasonably priced merchandise.
Great place awesome people good selection.
Much more sports oriented than nearby Shortstops. Not too sure about MTG, etc but definitely the best hobby baseball/football card shop around. Parry and staff are incredibly knowledgeable, provide opportunities to get discounted items via a discount club and often have events for the collecting community. Great shop, family owned.
Wonderful owners and great selection of back stock in comics. Always happy to help you find a that something you are looking for. Will keep coming back again and again
Best comic store to have your pull list at! You wont have to worry about being able to get your regular comics each week, plus you can pay for a subscription with them and get discounts on your comics. Definitely worth it!
Great selection. Great service. If you are dedicated to the hobby, their discount club is worth signing up for. Found many cards I was looking for for a couple of bucks vs 30+ on websites.
In the comic game, I am a huge fan of graphic novels. Their selection is a bit small, but I was able to find some good grabs. The woman who helped me was very sweet and helpful. Theres a big selection of the singular issue comics which is still cool. Dont care for sport paraphernalia, so I didnt check that out.
Great shop very knowable, They take care of their customers. Awesome subscription plan for weekly comics, TONS of sports cards, and are always willing to help with what ever youre looking for.
Owner Parry took time to assist my children with their first comic book selection. In addition, educated me with the content of certain DC comics approved for my childrens maturity level and interest. Great experience and will be back soon!
A great place fill all your needs if you comics are your thing. Or, if you love sports collectables.
I have been coming here for over 20 years, on & off. Back in the day they were in Tampa. At one point the store was the size of a Walgreens ! Over the years they moved and downsized. The store now is a good size tho, with TONS of stuff. They have a TON of back isssues also. I never leave here empty handed. If you are in the area, check it out. Staff here is also very friendy & helpful ! Only bad thing is their hours. THEY SUCK. Certain days, certain times, etc. So pre-plan your visit. Cool thing is, there is something here for everyone. I look forward to coming back ! Thank you Wonder Water ! Keep up the good work !
Would give 0 stars if I could. Brought it some cards for them to take a look at. The lady at the pront just looked at the box and said “I’d give them away for free” without taking a look at a single card. Turns out I had a rare rookie Barry Sanders worth some good moola. Your loss due to your laziness. Don’t be so damn lazy if you want to make a good business for yourself. You’ll surely crash. You can tell that she clocked in for the day simply for the pay. Will never be coming here again and will tell everyone with sports and comic interests to stay away from this place too. Was purely ridiculous.
Great selection. Good prices
Prices still in the 80s and 90s era. But all in all you can find what you are looking for. Unless you like soccer or nascar lol. Nice comic selection also overpriced especially on variant editions. EC much more reasonable. But its the only shop for like 200 miles for cards.
Its a bit cramped and disorganized which makes it difficult to browse what is definitely a large inventory of items. Prices are a crapshoot from bargain to high.
Very friendly..... Took their time was not rushed at all.
Best staff and selection for Sports cards around, and a nice size comic section too. Been a member here for awhile now and cant begin to describe how happy Ive been with my experiences there.
Great place.Nice people.
Great collection of millions of cards from every sport. You name a card that you need, they probably have it.
Great service and selection. Places to sit down if you need it. Employees will answer all your questions and point out what you need. Nice and clean public restroom.
Been going to their stores off and on for many years very professional very knowledgeable Collectibles and on comic books would highly recommend it for either one top of the line
This place is an amazing it has everything you need for collecting cards or comics sleeves boxes cards ect. A little pricey but worth it.
Large selection of Sports Card, Comics and Collectibles. Family run, you cant go wrong. Better prices than on the internet for baseball card boxes etc.
Nice store lots of comic. My only issue is way too crowded some boxes say dont touch or cant buy you should take them in the back they are taking up space from everything else other than that awesome
Great selection of new and back issue floppies. Tiny TPB and hardcover comic section. A scattering of Pops.
Helpful staff, good selection, can get lost for hours looming through all the boxes!
Definitely the most varied and experienced collector specialty store in the area, especially for comic books and sports memorabilia. Has loose trading card singles, sports cards, storage boxes, displays, figurines and much more.
Really nice shop, great loyalty program. Has cards, comics, figures, and supplies. Super friendly.
Excellent selection and knowledgeable staff. Will be returning.
Hands down the BEST Card & Comic shop Ive ever been to. Extremely friendly, helpful, & trustworthy staff.
Great place with a great selection of books, graphic novels and all kinds of statues, figurines and collectables. Definitely stop in if you are in the area.
Husband has been going here since he was eight when they were wonder water 2 down in Clearwater and its the first place I bought comics from besides Barnes and Nobel. These days they are more focused on sports memorabilia and collectable card games (e.g. Magic the Gathering) than comics and I do not believe there are any tournaments here. Staff is always personable, helpful, and passionate about the stuff in their store. Blink and youll miss it and you really dont want to.
Great service, selection and anything else that matters. The best FLGS in the area for multiple decades.
Absolutely great, very nice owners helpful even made my handicap client very welcomed I will be back great selection as well
Great owners very nice great selection Fairly Priced
