The Card Merchant family is proud to welcome Henry Moore and Darryn Ying as the owners of Card Merchant Silverdale! Both deeply embedded in the TCG scene, Henry and Darryn share a passion for games and the communities that grow around them.
Henry's journey in TCGs began with a booster pack of Prophecy back in 2000, and that passion never stopped growing! Over the years he's played all sorts of games, but one thing has always stood out: how much a great local game store means to the community. Opening a space of his own has been a long-held dream, and he's excited to build that true third place - somewhere beyond home and work where people can come together, have fun, and make lasting memories!
Darryn has been a passionate TCG player since he was 16, when his local game store became a second home. It was there he discovered not just a love for the game, but a genuine passion for the community, competition, and the friendships that come with it. That passion has only grown over the years - these days he's actively playing Flesh and Blood, travelling overseas to compete and stay connected to the global scene. It's become even more meaningful now that he gets to share the hobby with his son, who's picked up the same passion for TCGs. What drives Darryn is creating a space where others can find that same sense of community - and pass that on to the next generation!
Mark your calendars as the doors open on 29th May, and we can't wait to see you there!
