I'm curious if anyone has a recommendation of a great shop in New York City. Google is failing me but thinking there has to be something. Found one listed in Brooklyn (The Dugout) but I only have some limited free time on a business trip and the city is probably my only option while in New York... so far just pulling up some hybrid comic shops (Alex's on 89th)... not sure if there's a gem somewhere I'm somehow missing.

Thanks!

I go to Alex's a couple times a month for toploaders, etc. He has a several binders and a cabinet full of 50s-60s Topps (not sure the prices), but I don't think he has any pre-war cards. Other than that, I don't think there are any shops in Manhattan. I have not ventured out to the other boroughs to look yet.

Brigandis around 44th and sixth has pre war cards and some cool autographed items, but is very pricey.

That "Brigandi's" used to have top quality cards...but as said, waaaay overpriced.

Both are extremely overpriced. Save yourself the trip and do something New Yorky instead.
