Our Southside store is the metro’s biggest destination for TCG fans, with the largest selection of sealed boxes, single packs, and singles you’ll find anywhere in Des Moines. Display cases are stocked with Magic: The Gathering cards for every format, from Commander staples to Modern must-haves, alongside Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Disney Lorcana singles ready to slot into your next deck. For set builders and bulk buyers, we keep what feels like endless binders of cards to help you complete collections or load up on playables.

The Southside location is the ultimate destination for gaming in Des Moines, with the largest selection of retro consoles and cartridges in the metro. From NES, SNES, and N64 to Atari, Sega, PlayStation, and Xbox, we cover every era of gaming history — all the way up to current-gen hits on PS5 and Xbox Series X. Shelves are stocked with consoles, controllers, accessories, and games for casual players, speedrunners, and serious collectors alike. If it’s been on a screen and held in a controller, chances are you’ll find it here.

Southside is home to the largest selection of preowned and new vinyl in Des Moines, with bins organized by genre so you can dig with purpose or just browse until inspiration strikes. From rock and jazz classics to hip hop, metal, indie, and soundtracks, our collection spans decades and styles. New arrivals hit the floor daily, and every record is inspected for quality before it earns a spot in the bins. Whether you’re hunting for a rare original pressing or grabbing a fresh reissue, Southside is where the city’s vinyl collectors come to spin.

Southside is a goldmine for action figure collectors, with vintage icons that defined the hobby. You’ll spot Kenner Star Wars figures from the original ’77–’85 run (yes, even the hard-to-find Last 17), G.I. Joe A Real American Hero complete with file cards and accessories, and Generation 1 Transformers that still convert like the day they rolled off the line. The massive wall of carded figures covers everything from Toy Biz Marvel Legends and McFarlane Spawn to early NECA cult classics, plus modern lines from Hasbro, Mattel, and Super7. And when the latest waves drop — whether it’s Black Series, Classified, Masterverse, or Ultimates — they land here fast. For Des Moines collectors, this is where decades of toy history live side by side.

Our Southside location is loaded with anime and manga for fans who know their way around a collection. Shelves are stacked with statues and scale figures from top makers like Banpresto, Kotobukiya, and Good Smile Company, alongside prize figures and limited-edition releases you won’t see everywhere. The book section features both current hits and rare out-of-print manga volumes, while the media shelves carry hard-to-find anime DVDs and Blu-rays — from classic series box sets to collector’s edition films. Whether you’re chasing the newest My Hero Academia statue or tracking down an elusive Studio Ghibli release, Southside is where Des Moines anime fans score their best finds.

The Southside Buying Center has been fueling Des Moines collections for decades, taking in everything from single grails to entire storage unit hauls. We pay cash or trade credit for sports cards, TCGs, video games, vinyl records, action figures, comics, anime statues, and more. Our team knows the market and grades with a collector’s eye, so you get fair, transparent offers every time. Bring in your extras, your doubles, your attic finds, or that stack of retro games you haven’t touched in years — we’ll turn them into spending power for your next great score.
