Archival Trading,
Rooted in Mid City.
We are two brothers based in Mid City, Los Angeles, driven by a shared lifelong passion for trading card games. What started as a personal obsession with the art, the strategy, and the thrill of the pull has evolved into a dedicated platform for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
At Palms, we don’t just buy and sell cards, we curate them. We focus on the archival preservation of trading card history, viewing every piece as a work of art worth protecting. From rare vintage finds to the latest modern releases, we approach everything we do with a meticulous eye for quality and a deep respect for the community. Whether you're hunting for a missing piece of your master set or love a good card rip, welcome to Palms.
