Over the Top Games - Moline, Illinois

Went down tonight to check it out for the first time. Store was super clean with a lot of accessories, singles, and sealed products. The two guys working behind the counter were friendly and attentive.

Best thing for me is the inventoried singles, gentleman was able to pull up what I was looking for told me it was in stock and the price. Made buying super smooth and easy instead of just hoping it was in the case.

Would highly recommend it to anyone in the area, I'll be stopping by the next time I need to build a new deck.

Over The Top Games is the best game store that I've regularly attended since I got into the hobby ~10 years ago. Steve, the owner, is friendly and professional and has a great rapport with the regulars. The rest of the store staff are similarly helpful and welcoming. The shop is clean, organized, and a pleasant place to spend time gaming.

I mainly play Star Wars Unlimited there, and they've done a fantastic job of supporting the community as the game has grown over the past year; hosting casual nights every Wednesday and slightly more competitive events on Sunday afternoons. I always look forward to coming into the shop on those days, especially if we're drafting.

As far as pricing on singles goes, I've always been given a fair deal, and it's very nice to not have to go through the hassle of waiting for cards to come in from TCGPlayer from a dozen different sellers when I'm filling out cards for a new set. Sealed product is also fairly priced, and trade-in value is better than a lot of other shops I've visited. While I haven't interacted with them as much, there are lots of other games supported there, including Pokémon, Magic, and Lorcana. Not to mention the shelves of board games, sleeves, deck boxes, and other accessories.

Overall I cannot recommend this store enough, whether you're just looking to stop in and buy some cards or participate in the awesome community this place has fostered!

Owner/staff are rude to anyone that's not playing tournaments. As a buyer you're usually standing at the register waiting on an employee to ring you up, and are always met with annoyance. Stopped to grab a small handful of singles, while staff is cutting up with their regulars the employee let me know they were closing and I needed to hurry if I wanted to buy anything. Might be fine to go play cards there, but the place is junk if you're there just to buy. Def lost a customer that's been spending a few hundred monthly with em today.

As mentioned by a previous review, buyers stick to trademart. Been going there for a decade, tried this place, and will definitely recommend trademart over this dump. They have variety that dwarfs OOT's very limited English only product, sealed prices are leagues better, and they will take the time for a sale. I've had trademart putting lots together for me 20 min after closing because I was grabbing so much.

Main takeaway though, get better customer service, stop treating the shop like your lil clubhouse with your tourney players, and acting annoyed anytime someone comes in to actually buy something.

Sold some MTG cards here recently. The owner (I'm guessing) was super friendly and transparent about everything. Very quick and easy. Any future TCG business will be conducted here!

Place was amazing for collecting single pokemon cards. I didn't have to spend hours going through boxes. Will stop back if I'm in the area.

My sons and I really enjoy going to Over The Top Games in Moline, Illinois. Great spot for Pokemon cards, one of our local spots we hunt at. Today these were a couple of our Astral Radiance cards we picked up towards the set. The employees are always friendly even with newbies like myself! Stop in and check them out!

What a welcoming and professional game shop! My 10-year-old and I were able to participate in a Star Wars Unlimited tournament, buy game mats, snag a base deck, pre-order a booster case, and more! Plus, we got some really cool 'weekly play' promo cards. Steve, the owner, is friendly and welcoming of my family. The shop is clean, well lit, and has good atmosphere with comfortable seating! Lots of card selection, including the lastest games and their hard-to-find items that are usually only online. I can't say enough great things, we're coming back weekly and making our purchases here to support the shop!
