There is a HUGE show in Columbus this week end. I am not sure of where stores are but there are plenty down there.

it was actually being used as a form of currency we were able to pay for our gas coming into town with cash, credit or signed jerseys. thought it was kinda weird
edit: sucks we leave thursday night so no card show this weekend here. did find a decent looking shop about to head up there..the other shop we found was closed today for vacation gonna try to hit them up before we leave
hartman's and chuck&barbs

RE: card shops in columbus OH or ann arbor MI?
just got back from hartman's since it was open! pretty nice lil shop! if you were setbuilding they have a pretty insane singles collection..did some digging in their $.75 boxes (any insert under $10BV is in there) picked up a few maddux cards we needed and a random 1999 pacific promo #/49 and then a lil gem of a find in my eyes... this was a promo that fleer sent the shop years ago (2000) and had been hanging on there wall since then.
its a framed fleer (tradition i think?) painting around 5x7 of chipper jones. wasn't sure if it was a promo/sample or a regular issue but once I heard it was sent to them from them I figured it was some sorta promo so bought it blindly.
opened up the back of the frame (came framed) and sure enough 2001 fleer 5x7 painting. promo sample numbered out of 100 (35 of 100 PS)
looks awesome! also picked up a 2005 topps all-time favorites Glenn Hubbard auto for $5
also this.... I got this chair for my 1st birthday from my grandparents it has been at my moms house for the past 15 years or so... so she sanded it down, painted it, a few decals and cut up cards later...she surprised me with this
and lastly a photo of our six month old daughter Penny Ann (who has not missed a Braves game her entire life) sitting in it

Stadium is pretty nice...little pricey for singles, but what LCS isn't. Ann Arbor is a nice town to just walk around. Lots of culture.
Have fun!
