Where Every CardTells a Story.

From the vineyards of Napa Valley, Thrill Valley Trading Co. connects passionate collectors with the cards that complete their collection...

Napa Valley's Hobby Shop
Built by collectors,
for collectors.

We know what it feels like to finally land that rookie card you've been hunting for years — the one that completes the set, the one that brings you back to that championship summer. That feeling is why we're here.

Thrill Valley was born in the Napa Valley, inspired by the loyal fandom of the Bay — where storytelling happens and the nostalgia of The Faithful is shared. We Believe, and there is Strength in Numbers. From the feeling of being part of the team during Humm Baby, to sitting on the edge of our seats every night during Torture — this is a community that only Collectors truly understand.

The Valley Behind the Brand

We're not a faceless marketplace. We're collectors who grew up in Northern California, chasing autographs and hunting card shows every weekend. Thrill Valley is the hobby the way it was meant to be — personal, passionate, and community-driven.

Scott Dado

A Bay Area kid through and through — lifelong fan of Will Clark, Chris Mullin, and Joe Montana. Scott is a walking sports encyclopedia with a passion for collecting and a gift for sharing that love with everyone around him. For Scott, the hobby has always been about more than cards — it's about community, connection, and keeping the magic of sports alive.

Caryn Kuykendall-Dado
Co-Founder

Caryn Kuykendall-Dado

Born and raised in Southern California — which makes for quite the rivalry with Scott. Growing up an Angels and Dodgers fan, Caryn found her way to the 49ers thanks to the craziness of NFL ownership, and that's where she and Scott truly connected. (It certainly wasn't over her Dodgers fandom.) Caryn has a special love for vintage cards — drawn to the history and stories tied to the players behind the cardboard. She brings that appreciation for the past to everything Thrill Valley does.

⭐ The Inspiration: Will "The Thrill" Clark

Will Clark wasn't just a first baseman — he was the definition of clutch. His iconic performance in Game 5 of the 1989 NLCS, sending the Giants to the World Series, is the kind of moment that stays with you forever. The intensity he brought every single night on the field is what separates legends from players. That fire, that relentless will to deliver when it mattered most, is the spirit behind everything we do at Thrill Valley.
