@Squintle asks
big trade nights are a lot for me. Is there a less intense way to meet collectors?
Jeff answers
I'd ask a local shop about quieter visiting times or beginner-friendly gatherings, then start with one question or a small trade selection. You don't have to make a full evening of it. @JustHereForPikachu worried about walking into a shop too. A short, comfortable first visit still counts.
