Default Any good card shops in SoCal?

Somewhere between LA and irvine if at all possible? I'm there on vacation and have the itch to break a box.

Hit up South Bay Baseball Cards in Lomita.

https://www.sbaycards.com/

Be sure to check the traffic report no matter where you go. Traffic can be a nightmare out here. Especially if you're far from Frank and Sons it could take a while!

South Bay Cards is the only way to go. Best selection and prices, just kind of out of the way if your in downtown LA. I am not a huge fan of Frank and Sons but I might be the minority.

Take this man's advice about checking the traffic. It's funny, but I have passed by South Bay quite a few times, but have yet to step foot inside the shop.

You would have no reason at all to worry about either place. They are both pretty dang tame. While in Lomita, do yourself a favor and go about a minute or so down the road and hit up Burger City Grill.
