Trace 'n Chase USA
The Premier Sports Card Shop in New Jersey
You’ve been chasing that card your whole life. The rookie. The auto. The 1/1 you saw on eBay and told yourself you’d find one day. Trace ‘n Chase USA is the sports card shop New Jersey collectors have been waiting for — and now we’ve brought it to Totowa.
Trace ‘n Chase USA in Totowa, NJ is New Jersey’s largest sports card shop — a 10,000 square foot flagship store stocking NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL trading cards, sports memorabilia, and exclusive European releases. An official authorized retailer for Panini America, Topps, Upper Deck, and Fanatics, Trace ‘n Chase USA serves collectors throughout New Jersey and ships nationwide.
Europe's #1 Hobby Shop Has Come Home to America
The sports card hobby was born in the United States. And now, the company that became Europe’s largest sports card retailer has come back to where it all started.
Established in 2021. The Largest Hobby Shop in Europe.
Trace ‘n Chase launched in 2021 and grew faster than any hobby retailer in European history. Within three years, we became the continent’s largest sports card and memorabilia destination — serving collectors across the UK, Greece, Germany, France, and beyond with direct access to Panini America, Topps, Upper Deck, and Fanatics products. But Europe was never the finish line.
Now Rooted in Totowa, New Jersey.
Trace ‘n Chase USA is the American flagship of Europe’s largest sports card company, headquartered at 1 US-46, Unit 8, Totowa, NJ 07512. This isn’t a satellite office or a drop-shipping operation. It is a full-scale, 10,000 square foot sports card shop New Jersey collectors can call their own — in the state where serious collectors live, shop, and chase.
NJ's Best Sports Card Shop — 10,000 Sq Ft in Totowa
There is no other sports card shop in New Jersey — or anywhere in the Northeast — that looks or feels like this.
A Store Unlike Any Other in the Northeast
Our Totowa flagship spans 10,000 square feet of pure hobby. Floor-to-ceiling displays of sealed hobby boxes, blasters, and retail product. A dedicated memorabilia section featuring signed jerseys, authenticated footballs, and graded cards from the most iconic athletes in sports history. Glass showcases stocked with PSA-graded rookies, vintage singles, and limited-edition parallels that serious collectors fly in to see.
Every week, thousands of new products arrive directly from Panini America, Topps/Fanatics, Upper Deck, and Fanatics Authentic — meaning our shelves are stocked with releases the day they drop. As a sports card shop serving New Jersey and the greater Northeast, we take that responsibility seriously.
