Welcome to Ankeny’s Sports Card & TCG Headquarters
If your happy place smells like fresh booster packs, new slab labels, or that faint whiff of vinyl sleeves, you’re in the right spot. Our newest location (opened February 2025) is home to the largest selection of sports card singles and sealed product in the entire metro — plus a TCG lineup that would make any Pokémon trainer, Magic planeswalker, or Digimon tamer break into a victory dance.
But we didn’t stop there. You’ll also find walls of Funko Pop! figures begging for shelf space, bins of new and retro video games that’ll nuke your free time, and crates of vinyl records ready to spin. And because we can’t help ourselves, we’ve packed in plenty more: loose and new action figures, Gundam model kits, and a media section stocked with DVDs, Blu-rays, and CDs.
Basically, if it’s collectible, playable, displayable, or nostalgia-inducing — Ankeny’s got it.

Sports Cards
From rookie chasers to set builders, Ankeny is the go-to spot for sports cards in the Des Moines metro. We stock the largest selection of singles and sealed product from top brands like Panini, Topps, and Upper Deck — covering football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and UFC. Find graded gems, autographed memorabilia, and the latest hobby box drops all in one place. Our buying counter is always active, bringing in fresh inventory daily so the hunt never gets stale. Search “sports cards near me” in Iowa and you’ll end up here — guaranteed.

Trading Card Games (TCGs)
Ankeny is a hotspot for TCG players and collectors, with a lineup led by Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering plus fan favorites like Yu-Gi-Oh!, Digimon, One Piece, and Lorcana. Our cases are packed with singles, sealed decks, booster boxes, and exclusive promos, all kept in collector-grade condition. The real magic, though, happens at the tables — from weekly events and tournaments to casual meet-ups where you can trade, battle, and connect with other players. Whether you’re chasing Charizard, fine-tuning a Modern deck, or just here for the community vibes, this is the place to play.

Vinyl Records
Drop the needle on Ankeny’s best vinyl selection, with crates stocked full of new pressings, reissues, and vintage gems across every genre. From classic rock and jazz to hip hop, indie, and soundtracks, our bins are built for diggers and casual listeners alike. We buy and trade daily, so the rotation is always fresh, and every record is inspected for quality before it hits the floor. Whether you’re chasing that grail album or just hunting for your next spin, our vinyl section hits all the right notes.

Video Games
From retro classics to the latest releases, our Ankeny video game section bridges every generation of play. Shop Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox, and Sega titles alongside consoles, accessories, and collector’s editions. We buy and trade daily, so the shelves are always shifting — one day it’s a stack of NES cartridges, the next it’s a mint PS5 bundle. Whether you’re chasing nostalgia, hunting rare imports, or grabbing the hottest new drop, this is where gamers in the Des Moines metro level up.

Action Figures
From sealed collectibles to loose treasures ready for display, our Ankeny action figure section is packed with fan-favorite lines from Marvel Legends, Star Wars Black Series, McFarlane DC Multiverse, NECA, and more. You’ll find shelves of new releases alongside vintage and loose figures that add instant character to your collection. Inventory changes constantly thanks to our active buying counter, so every visit feels like a fresh hunt. If it’s poseable, displayable, or just plain awesome — it’s here.

Funko Pop!
From vaulted grails to the latest exclusives, our Ankeny Funko wall is a sight every collector needs to see. We carry hundreds of Pop! Vinyl figures spanning movies, TV, anime, sports, and gaming — all stored in collector-grade condition. New arrivals hit the floor daily, and our buying counter means you never know when a hard-to-find chase will pop up. Whether you’re filling gaps in your set or starting fresh, this is where Funko dreams get boxed and bagged.

Anime & Manga
From shelf-ready manga volumes to wall-worthy anime merch, our Ankeny location is stocked for every kind of fan. Browse popular series like Demon Slayer, My Hero Academia, One Piece, and Attack on Titan alongside collectibles, model kits, and figures straight from your favorite shows. We keep new volumes and releases flowing in weekly, so there’s always something fresh to read, build, or display. Whether you’re here to binge your bookshelf or find that perfect figure for your desk, this is your anime home base in the metro.

Buying Center
Turn your old collection into your next obsession at our Ankeny Buying Center. We pay cash or trade credit for sports cards, TCGs, action figures, Funko Pops, video games, vinyl, and more — from single pieces to entire collections. Our team knows the market, so you’ll get fair, transparent offers without the hassle of selling online. Bring in your extras, doubles, or whole storage totes and walk out with cash in hand or store credit ready to spend. The hunt never stops — it just changes shape.

What Makes Jay's Different
We're not just another collectibles store – we're collectors who happen to run a store, which means we actually get why condition matters and why finding that one missing piece feels like winning the lottery.
