I have been enjoying the hobby as a collector the last few years, and thoroughly enjoy playing as well via the Pokémon TCG Live app.

I decided I wanted to try and build some of the decks I have enjoyed playing in real life to play between friends.

While I have plenty of bulk, I need a bunch of trainers and general singles as decks often have 3-4 of the same card. I could buy over ebay but was hoping to simplify through single bulk purchases.

What websites or stores are best for this kind of thing? I'm located in Sydney near Hurstville so ideally locations not too far from there.

Hey everyone, I figured some people have been to Japan and got cards there before, so figured I'd ask here.

I have some family going to Japan at the start of September and wondering if there is anything I should ask for them to get me and the kids while over there? Unfortunately they are coming back before the 30th releases but am wondering if anyone else here has purchased in Japan before? Where should they go and what should they pick up? They are going to Tokyo (have no idea exactly where so not sure about pokémon centre..) and are there some Japanese sets that are worth buying that I may be unaware of? How should they ask for certain packs or boxes in Japanese and/or English?

My BIL last year bought 2 Japanese battle boxes (have the same cards each box... 🤦) for my eldest but was still cool seeing the cards difference in texture between English and Japanese cards. But would like to understand some differences between what packs to get in Japan that we can't get here.

I have bought Japanese packs at my local LGS before, but also wondering if the disparity in our currency would make it worthwhile to and if there are sets available in Japan that aren't available here? Help a curious Dad out.

Has anyone given bulk to EB and if yes how does it work, it was mentioned they only take 50cards at once

Hi guys - I am wanting to complete my japanese full sets for various series, but its quite long sifting through dozens of cards at a store only to find 1 or 2 pieces and having to repeat at hopes I either missed or someones added cards I needed.

I live in Melbourne, are there any websites that ship Japanese singles? appreciated!

Ditto collection showed up.

Edit: Looks like a false alarm. People got refunded.

My son is trying to masterset 151 and there’s still a few lower end singles he needs. I’d rather just get them all from the same place, but eBay sellers and online sellers only seem to have 3 or 4 of them, and by the time I pay all the postage it just isn’t worth it. Can anyone recommend somewhere that’s usually pretty good with holding singles?

I've read the rules so hopefully this question is okay.

I haven't sold anything card related in 10+ years so I'm just genuinely wondering what's the best way to go about doing so in current times as I need to pay off some medical bills. It's a smallish collection of about 55 cards worth about 2k according to one of those card scan apps.

Still learning the ropes of this as I recently found my small collection of 200 cards from per-2002 era. Nothing worth over $100 by the looks of it, but I feel there's a couple that's still worth putting up on eBay.

So yeah just looking for some tip selling on eBay. I've sold heaps of things on eBay locally and overseas before, but not trading cards. What are some things to watch out for? What's the best way to pack and ship singles? Would it be best to just stick to shipping to Australia or.

Whatnot must of got a boss call from the Pokemon Company.

Great policy overall though!
