The Summit Exchange Collectible Show is a one-day, community-focused event for collectors who want to buy, sell, and trade in person. With a broad mix of Pokémon, One Piece, sports cards, and general collectibles, it should be a solid Saturday stop if you enjoy browsing tables, talking deals, and seeing cards up close before you commit.
Hosted at REV Mortgage in San Antonio, this show is positioned as an easy, local-style meetup rather than a huge convention weekend. If you like smaller shows where conversations are part of the experience and you can work through trades without feeling rushed, this one looks like it will fit that vibe well.
A Full Day of Cards & Collectibles
Even with limited public details beyond the flyer, the format is clear: vendors and collectors in a single room, focused on in-person hobby interaction. The show is being promoted around buying, selling, and trading, which usually means you will see a mix of inventory styles, from curated display cases to more affordable boxes you can dig through.
Based on the categories listed, expect to see:
- Pokémon singles across modern and older sets, plus trade binders and occasional sealed products
- One Piece TCG singles, playable staples, and chase cards depending on vendor inventory
- Sports cards across major leagues, including raw singles, some graded cards, and team or player lots
- Collectibles beyond cards, which can include small hobby items, memorabilia, and display pieces
- Supplies like sleeves, top loaders, binders, and storage options (often present at vendor tables)
If your goal is to find specific cards, it helps to bring a short want list on your phone (sets, players, or a few targets). For trade-focused collectors, a clean binder setup goes a long way. Keep your “available for trade” cards easy to flip to, and you will have faster conversations at busy tables.
Because this event welcomes multiple categories, it is also a good place to compare pricing across sellers in real time. Even if you do not buy immediately, doing a full lap first can help you spot the best condition and value before you circle back.
More Than Just a Card Show
Shows like this tend to be at their best when the atmosphere is relaxed and social, and this one is clearly marketed around the community side of the hobby. That usually translates into more trading, more casual table talk, and more opportunities to learn what people are collecting locally.
Another practical plus is that the event is advertised with free entry and free parking, which makes it easier to stop in for a quick visit or stay for the full window without feeling like you have to “make a whole day of it.” If you are introducing a friend or family member to card shows for the first time, that low barrier can make the experience feel much more approachable.
For sellers and organizers, the flyer also makes it clear this is vendor-driven. If you are a local hobby business, a regular show vendor, or someone who wants to move inventory through in-person deals, this is the kind of format where collectors often arrive ready to trade and negotiate.
Vendor coordination is currently being handled via text or DMs, so if you want to set up, reach out to lock in your spot early.
A Show for All Levels of Collectors
The Summit Exchange Collectible Show should work well whether you are new to collecting or you have been in the hobby for years, because the value of an in-person event is the same at every level: you get to see condition with your own eyes and make decisions without guessing from photos.
Beginners and casual collectors usually get the most out of:
- Seeing the difference between raw and graded cards up close
- Asking questions about condition, pricing, and sets without pressure
- Finding affordable singles and building out a personal collection at a comfortable pace
More experienced collectors tend to enjoy:
- Inspecting surface, corners, and centering before buying
- Comparing multiple copies of the same card across different tables
- Negotiating directly and avoiding shipping risk, fees, and listing uncertainty
- Turning duplicates into upgrades through trades
Multi-category shows are also great if your collection is not just one lane. You might be hunting Pokémon for your personal collection, checking One Piece staples for play, and still want to browse sports singles, all in the same room. That mix is part of what makes a local collectible show feel like a true hobby marketplace.
