Elks Lodge Bordentown Show

The Elks Lodge Bordentown Show is a bi-monthly sports card and collectibles show at the Elks Lodge on Amboy Rd in Bordentown, New Jersey, run by RK Sports Promotions. It is a one-day Sunday morning event with more than 40 tables, and it suits collectors who want a broad mix of sports cards and other collectibles under one roof, with Pokémon among the games on the floor.

What you'll find on the floor

The room carries more than 40 tables, and the mix is wide rather than specialized. Sports cards old and new lead the list, alongside Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh!, plus comic books, McFarlane figures, non-sports cards, sets, posters, autographed memorabilia, supplies, and unopened wax packs and boxes. Door prizes include shopping sprees, and show bucks can be spent at any table in the room.

Admission is $5 per adult, and children under 6 get in free. Autograph guests appear at some RK events, though that varies from show to show.

Dates and format

Shows run on Sundays from 9 AM to 2 PM at the Elks Lodge, 11 Amboy Rd. The schedule below covers the shows from mid-fall into December.

The dates are not strictly every two weeks, so it is worth confirming the Sunday before planning a trip around it.

Vendor tables and rules

Dealers reserve tables through a registration form that asks for the show date, the number of tables wanted, and a detailed list of the merchandise to be sold. Items displayed that were not on that list can be turned away, so the list should be complete. Dealers also list every payment service they accept, such as Venmo, Zelle or Cash App.

Payment terms are firm: once a table is paid for, there are no refunds or credits, and the spot cannot be transferred to someone else. Shows tend to sell out quickly, so it pays to be sure of the date before committing.

New Jersey tax rules apply. Every dealer must be registered with the State of New Jersey Division of Taxation and must display the tax certification at the table. Dealers without a New Jersey tax ID are asked to supply an alternative number on the registration form.

A separate rule matters to casual sellers: someone without a table may sell to dealers only, not to other customers. Selling to the public requires renting space.

History

RK Sports Promotions has run card shows and auctions across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and New York since 1990, and the people behind it have been in the hobby for more than 50 years. Alongside the Bordentown shows, the company runs monthly auctions, a summer series at Wildwood, and an inventory of cards, memorabilia and collectibles that it buys, sells and consigns. Past Bordentown shows have featured autograph guests, including Wesley Walker and Freeman McNeil. The 2026 Bordentown run covered here includes a June 28 edition at the same $5 admission, followed by the fall dates in the table above.

Who it suits

The show fits collectors who want to sift through sports cards and a mix of other collectibles in a half-day trip for a $5 entry, families with younger children who get in free, and New Jersey dealers who are registered for state sales tax and want a table at an established regional show that has been running under the same promoters for decades.
