Underworld Cards & Games

Underworld Cards & Games is a card store at 5563 Western Blvd Ste 10 in Raleigh, open Thursday through Sunday, with a focus on competitive Yu-Gi-Oh! and a buylist that takes singles, sealed product, bulk and large collections. It opened in 2023 and has built its reputation on large Konami-sanctioned tournaments. It suits tournament players, deck builders, and anyone with a pile of cards to sell.

What's on the shelves

The store carries Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh!, with Yu-Gi-Oh! singles, sealed product and accessories as the specialty for players and collectors at every level. The buylist also covers One Piece, Lorcana and Riftbound.

New releases are a point of effort here. Distributor allocations to local game stores often fall short of demand, so when a release runs thin the store fills gaps by sourcing from other local game stores and from the secondary market, with the aim of keeping popular sets on the shelf as long as possible.

Selling and trading cards in

The store buys singles, sealed product, bulk and collections. Offers are based on recent sales of the cards rather than guesswork, and payment is cash or store credit the same day. Store credit carries a 5% bonus over the cash offer.

The bulk rates below were current in August 2026.

Sellers with a collection worth $10,000 or more should call ahead so the store can have the cash ready.

Organized play and events

The store hosts official Konami-sanctioned Yu-Gi-Oh! tournaments: weekly locals, OTS Championships and NAWCQ Regional Qualifiers. The Regional Qualifier weekends draw duelists from across the region. Bringing large-scale Yu-Gi-Oh! events to the community has been the store's mission since it opened its doors in 2023. Events run with an emphasis on a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and trained staff.

Hours and getting there

The store is closed Monday through Wednesday.

The address is 5563 Western Blvd Ste 10, Raleigh, NC 27606.
