Description
A tenant inside Trecamall Akihabara 1, on the basement floor of the Laox Akihabara flagship. Trecamall, which opened on July 13, 2024, is Japan's first mall built exclusively around trading card specialty shops, with industry-leading names such as CARD COLLECT, Mandai Trading Cards, Shinsoku, Cardshop Nabe, and Ori-Park all under one roof. The same operator has also opened Trecamall Akihabara 2 on the 7th floor of Daikoku Drug at the Akihabara Station west exit, where Treca Armada's sister outlet "Cardshop Armada" is located—an unusual east-side/west-side dual-site setup for a single brand. Buyback and sales are centered on Pokémon as the lead title, with Duel Masters and the One Piece Card Game rounding out the lineup, and the shop uses the mall's foot traffic and its "extremely high buyback" branding to run frequent guerrilla-style buyback pushes.
