I'm somewhat familiar with the area (moreso with Grand Forks area) but don't spend too much time in that part of the country anymore. Last time I was in Fargo a few years ago it seemed like a metropolis compared to how it was when I was a kid.
I remember hitting up some local card shops in Fargo/Moorhead close to 30 years ago, but that was during the boom years and there were probably a lot more shops around then. I remember the Roger Maris 'museum' in West Acres and seem to recall a shop nearby in the mall(?), but if there was a shop it's likely long gone by now.
Best of luck to you if you decide to start something up, but be aware that a lot of collectors have moved on to the internet for the things you listed (this forum is a great example).
