Our Take:
I’ve only been to Cedar Cliff Collectibles a couple of times over the years–once I believe after Steve reached out to us on this site (he was possibly the first person to ever submit a contact form), and again when we decided to add the Directory to the site. I would say his store is a little more on the comics/collectibles side than sports cards (part of the reason I’ve been there less), but there is a lot of great stuff in the store. My personal interactions in store have been fine–although I may have seen him be a little…gruff… with a customer (I think one that was trying to sell a Pokémon card that may have been fake), but having been in business for more than 20 years, he’s clearly doing something right there.
