'My trading card shop is more of a community'

Triple A Collectibles in Shrewsbury has become a community hub for trading‑card fans, drawing customers from across the West Midlands.
Owner Aydin Uyan, who built his reputation selling at shows, runs a friendly shop focused on singles and trading—regulars often help each other out.
The shop stocks rare items (eg a One Piece card serialized to 1,500, worth about £1,200–£1,300) and the recent boom has been boosted by social‑media pack‑opening influencers.
