Already have quite a few items stored away for my sons bday and xmas, between a nice PC Perfect Order haul as well a past Amazon invite and 2 tins from Argos. This morning I woke up to 3 invites, 2 Black pitch and 1 Chaos Rising, I’m not sure I’ll go through with them. Trying to keep my budget down when it comes to Pokemo. Am I nuts on letting those items go?

For those interested, it’s a booster bundle and a ETB of Pitch Black and half a booster box of Chaos Rising.

Asda online have luminous city mini tins, moonlit tins and pitch black etbs in stock

The search function on the website is terrible though. Most stuff comes up if you search Pokémon etb

In stock at 5pm.

Have we had any indication as to when the surprise boxes will go out in the UK? I have seen a lot of posts from the US and Canada, but none from the UK.

Apparently these are pitch black packs. Still might be useful for someone

Was waiting for a First Partner Series 3 restock from Smyths in Warrington. Went in on Tuesday and staff told me they had nothing and would update on the website. But all last week the website didnt update, can anyone please tell me if they got a restock and I missed it or if im still waiting? Still need 2 of the generations to rip. Thanks.

So I can't type. Meant to say back in stock 😂

Not sure how we feel about chaos cards here, but they're only slightly above rrp. They've also got a chaos rising booster box for 169. Over 30 quid is free delivery. All in stock as at 12.10

So, I’ve been really tempted to purchase some of CBB3C booster boxes and the cheapest alternative I found was eBay before I purchase I would like understand of ya’ll’s experiences of buying Chinese booster boxes off eBay I.e. are they authentic? Any luck with pulls?

Also would really appreciate if there are any trusted sellers which you guys could recommend on eBay.

Since I want to buy bulk, I was really considering AliBaba since they can sell in bulk and almost at RRP but I never bought anything from AliBaba before and I’ve heard stories of it (of course bad ones)

But I really want to buy some CBB3C booster boxes!!!

Any help would appreciated!!!

Does anyone know any good Local Card Shops in the greater Manchester area. I live in Salford and I can’t just keep relying on Smyths lol

One thing I've always been confused by is what time I should be looking in supermarkets?

Tesco opens at 6am here, and I think used to stock behind the CS/cigs counter a when it was open at 8am but now toys are under the Entertainer so I assume they'll only be on the shelves at store opening?

Asda is 24 hours, shelves are labelled but always empty when I've been, do they stock at anytime of the day? Would they still have stuff behind the counter if they stock on the shelf?

I have the other supermarkets a drive away, so same questions really.

It baffles me when I hear about queues, how do people know what time and where to find anything? I haven't seen cards in my locals for at least 2 years!

Any help?

Post your purchases, pulls etc. here!
