Singles sales showcase
Prioritize readable display trays, independent card retrieval, rear or front access and a clear customer handover position.
Explore this option →Card Shop Counters & Trade-In Desks
Compare singles showcases, checkout positions and trade-in desks. Plan tray handling, POS equipment, staff access, temporary holding and connected counter dimensions.
A sales showcase displays store inventory, while a trade-in position receives customer-owned cards for inspection. They can share a coordinated counter run, but they need distinct work surfaces, temporary holding and a clear route between viewing, payment and return.
Rehearse a transaction before fixing the counter run.
Plan the counter around the real tray, holder and POS equipment. Overall height and finish alone do not show whether staff can unlock a cabinet, retrieve one item, inspect a trade and serve the next customer without mixing stock or obstructing another position.
Checkout and trade desk
Reserve a working surface for payment equipment and card inspection. Separate incoming customer items from sellable and reserved inventory.
Explore this option →Connected or corner run
Resolve the staff entry point, joining details, corner geometry and door travel in a measured plan. A bounding size is not a complete corner drawing.

Keep three stock states visible in the workflow
- Customer-owned incoming cards awaiting inspection remain identifiable and separate from sale inventory.
- Cards temporarily reserved for a customer have a defined holding position and a clear return process.
- Sellable cards return to their assigned trays or positions after assisted viewing.
- POS equipment, cables and light drivers have service access without occupying the display or inspection surface.
Send the information that changes the specification.
InputWhat to provideDecision supported
Counter footprintStraight runs, corners, staff entry, adjacent walls and customer standing positions.Resolve overall lengths and joining geometry before detailing the cabinet fronts.
Tray and holder sizesActual trays, slabs, top loaders, inspection mats and the intended retrieval method.Coordinate clear display space, hand clearance and the work surface.
Door and drawer travelAvailable rear aisle, sliding or hinged access and any nearby equipment.Check operation with a staff member standing in the working position.
POS and servicesEquipment footprints, cable entry, power needs and driver-access expectations.Keep payment equipment and wiring from blocking viewing or maintenance.
Transaction and access needsInspection, payment, reserved stock and any required accessible service position.Agree the operating layout and have the responsible local team confirm site requirements.
Quotation terms should identify minimum quantities, sample costs, production timing, packing, freight and installation responsibilities for the actual order. Do not assume a standard price or delivery promise from a reference configuration.
Check the sample or plan before release.
- Present a tray to a customer while another position remains usable.
- Inspect incoming cards without placing them inside a sale-inventory tray.
- Open the specified doors and drawers with the staff aisle occupied.
- Review the POS position, light reflection, cable route and the return of a card to its assigned place.
Questions buyers ask before ordering.
Can checkout and trading use one counter?
They can share a connected run if the working positions are distinct. Include the POS footprint, inspection mat, temporary holding and staff movement in the layout rather than assuming the glass display surface can perform every function.
What counter height should I order?
Confirm the staff task, customer viewing position, equipment and any locally required accessible service position. Reference model heights are starting configurations and do not establish one suitable height for every store.
Are corner and curved modules sold by their bounding dimensions?
Bounding dimensions describe the envelope only. The plan must also confirm the connection geometry, radius or angle, staff entry and access-door travel before the module can be quoted as part of a run.
What should I send for a counter quotation?
Send a dimensioned run plan, tray or holder samples, equipment footprints, quantities, finish direction and delivery destination. Identify which lighting, locks, wiring preparation, packaging and installation work the quotation should cover.
Continue with the right product or service.
Turn the requirements into a reviewable brief.
Send the plan, representative merchandise, quantities and delivery destination. The team can review the required configuration and the scope to be included in your quotation.

Separate incoming trades from goods ready for sale.
An incoming collection, a customer-selected card and a paid order should not share an unlabelled pile on the service surface. Plan the counter around a short chain of custody. The arrangement can be tested with paper labels and empty trays before hardware is specified.
| Decision | Information to record | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Incoming inspection | A temporary tray or clearly identified position for items awaiting review. | Define who accepts the items and where they wait during an interruption. |
| Sales and payment | A distinct place for the selected item, POS and receipt or order information. | Keep customer access and device cables out of staff retrieval paths. |
| Reserved or completed orders | A controlled holding position separate from live display stock. | Use a reference and a return or handoff procedure. |
Use this review sequence.
- Sketch the counter from the staff side with every door, drawer and service device shown.
- Trace one incoming trade, one assisted sale and one collection of a reserved order.
- Measure the complete joined run and any corner return; allow for the actual door sweep and receiving route.
- Record which part of the operation needs an additional work surface and which can share a position at different times.
Record the fixture or bay reference, sample merchandise, drawing revision, checks performed, unresolved items and the person confirming the next step. Keep assumptions visible; an illustrative layout is not a tested product specification.
