A New Home for the Hobby

We’re Takybox — a sports card and hobby box shop based in Des Moines, Iowa, built for collectors who love this hobby as much as we do. Whether you’re chasing rookie autos, completing a vintage set, or just here for the thrill of ripping packs, we’re glad you found us.

The Story Behind Takybox

Takybox started where most great things start — with a box of old cards.

A few years ago, while sorting through boxes in storage, we came across a stack of trading cards that had been forgotten for decades. Mid-90s rookies. A few ’80s commons. Bent corners, faded backs, and somehow, every single one brought back a memory — the corner shop. The first pack ever opened. The friend who traded a Griffey Jr. for a stick of gum.

That moment hit hard. The hobby never left us — life just got loud for a while.

So we did what every collector dreams of doing: we built a card shop. But not just any card shop. We wanted to build the kind of place we’d want to shop at ourselves — one that combines the speed and convenience of online shopping with the trust, care, and personality of a real local hobby store.

That’s Takybox.

Built in the Heart of America

We chose Des Moines, Iowa for a reason. Right in the middle of the country, surrounded by a community that values hard work, honesty, and treating people right. That’s the energy we put into every order, every email, and every pack of cards that leaves our facility.

From our Des Moines location, we ship to all 50 states — same-day if you order before 2 PM CST. No matter where you live, your order gets the same care, the same packaging, and the same attention.

What We Believe

  • The hobby belongs to everyone. Whether you’re spending $20 on a single pack or $20,000 on a sealed case, you matter to us. Same prices. Same service. Same respect.
  • Authenticity over everything. We work directly with authorized distributors and major manufacturers — Panini, Topps, Upper Deck, Konami, Wizards of the Coast, and more. Every product we sell is 100% factory-sealed and genuine. No counterfeits. No grey market. No exceptions.
  • Speed matters. When you order, you don’t want to wait. That’s why we ship the same business day on orders placed before 2 PM CST. The faster your boxes get to you, the faster you can start ripping.
  • Real people, real service. When you email us, you’re not getting a chatbot. You’re talking to actual collectors who care about your order, your collection, and your experience. We pick up the phone. We answer emails. We treat you the way we’d want to be treated.
  • Fair pricing, every day. We don’t gouge on hot releases or chase market spikes. Our pricing is built to keep collectors coming back — not to squeeze every dollar out of a single sale.

More Than a Store

Takybox isn’t a side hustle. It’s not a flip operation. It’s a real business built by people who actually live and breathe this hobby.

We rip boxes. We chase autos. We argue about who the next breakout rookie will be. We’ve felt the rush of pulling a 1/1, and we know the disappointment of opening a “dud” box. We’ve been on both sides of the counter — buying, selling, trading, learning.

That’s why we do this the way we do.
