About Us

“We’re all mad here…about collectibles.”

Welcome to Hidden Discoveries, a shop built for wanders, collectors, and daydreamers who believe that the coolest treasures are the ones tucked just out of plain sight. We’re your favorite corner of interest (and Stockton), packed with finds you didn’t even know you were searching for.

From kawaii must-haves to horror oddities, sport cards to retro comics- we collect what makes your heart skip and your inner kid scream, “No way, they have this?!”

How It All Started 

We didn’t start with a big plan. We started with a shelf, a few favorite finds, and a love for the thrill of the hunt. Hidden Discoveries was born from weekend market digs, card shop nostalgia, and the joy of unboxing something you truly love. 

Today, we’ve grown into a cozy storefront connected to our sister shop, The Poketable, where both sides come together to create a one-of-a-kind collectible experience. Whether you’re after a rare booster pack or a spooky vintage toy, you’ll find something to get excited about on both sides of the shop. 

What We Believe

  • Collecting is personal. Whether it’s for display, nostalgia, or trading -we get it.
  • Fun should be part of the process. That’s why we design our space to feel more like an experience than a store.
  • Everyone’s welcome. New fan or lifelong collector, there’s always something waiting here for you.

A Note from the Owner

“I built Hidden Discoveries to bring back the things people forgot about-like Beanie Babies, retro comics, quirky collectibles, and the kind of vintage treasures that used to make us light up as kids. I wanted to build a place that feels nostalgic, playful, and totally judgment-free- a space where you can geek out, be yourself, and find something that sparks joy. 

Whether you’re into horror toys, Hello Kitty, old-school card packs, or random oddball finds, this shop was made for you. Thank you for supporting my dream and being part of something a little different, a little weird, and a lot of fun.”
