Wanted to look at what tcg players thought of today's MBL but there's no discussion anywhere on the only sg pokemon trading card game subreddit?? it seems like its all about the prices, values, etc
probably the most important day for pokemon tcg in sg but ironically no one here cares
Hi so i thought about getting back into pokemon cards, the last i did it was circa 2018. Had no idea about the market now so blindly went to toys r us and 711 to look for packs but to my absolute surprise there were none. Visited the cardshack machine as i mistakenly thought it was from the official store, i genuinely thought i was going crazy seeing a pack sell for $30!?! Only then i searched online and found this sub and fell down the rabbit hole of the pokemon card resale market in sg. What the hell happened, in 2018 you could easily find a pack at retail stores!
Genuinely i just want a sensing of what happened to the pokemon tcg scene in sg now! Why the suddent rise in scalpers? Yes i know i am extremely late to this but i seriously had no idea about the current pokemon scene
And if anyone knows where to get cards, literally just a pack for a reasonable price please let me know! And what are some reseller stores i should avoid
Here to spread some awareness on the latest set. Please think twice before buying PC loose packs.

Title is the header. Need some thoughts!
Spotted this at Plaza Sing, are people seriously really buying these? It’s really crazy to think about.
Opened by first booster box yesterday and pulled Captain Pika, is it worth spending my time and money to grade it? What do you guys think it can get? There seems to be a tiny bump in the foil in front (not sure if its very visible in last pic), will it affect much?
EVERY RESELLER SCALPERS BECOME POKECENTER RN WITH SKY HIGH PRICE TRYNA FLIP FEELING DAMN SHAG SIA.. guys share some motivation quote why you will continue this collecting hobby despite such things going on in the TCG scene here…
Hey, I just restarted in the hobby of collecting and buying booster boxes. (Mainly JP bc well English is full of overpriced scalping and shipping costs) I have a bunch of Japanese ganks for C, UC, EX. Does anyone know where to offload them or selling them for not penny on the dollar? (Ik can just sell for a buck a pop on carousell but its mafan to upload 300 listing's...)
These are sequential slabs but the brightness of their watermarks are difference?
just started watching this apparently "famous" collector doing rip and ship and i realise he starts bending the cards once the holo cards start. can't tell if he's doing it on purpose but i also dk if this bend will actually damage the cards heh
i saw the staff holding the “end of Q” sign near where the staff are standing in the photo. so there was a very looong line going on. so what could be the restock yesterday? 😆
Edit: photo taken around 9am. Some also brought their helpers and angma to Q 🤣
Trying to understand the slab market in Singapore. For Japanese slabs, is it safe to say that PSA 10 prices now are being transacted at SNKRDUNK prices or slightly below SNKRDUNK prices, and PSA 9 and below are still being sold at Ebay prices?
At 10:02, chaos rising discontinued already aiyooo
Not too familiar with traditional chinese cards, but i dont see any black line sandwiched inbetween the card. Does that mean my card is fake? Understand that no embossed logo at bottom left because taiwan cards are different from simplified chinese china cards
TIA
Update from my around 2 weeks ago, so our parcel is officially declared lost. There was News about them unable to cope with the surge in delivery but I call bullshit on this.
How do you lose a parcel in their sorting facility, and their investigation did not explain why the driver took a photo of a random address and mark it as done.
The vendor has proceeded with the refund and requested i take down the posts. thanks everyone for the support! I really hope no more of such things are happening to anyone in this community!
Repost cause i forgot to hide my address previously…
Hello guys, just wanna share my experience with a carouseller who sold me fake cards and refused refund when i confronted him about it even though i said i dont mind paying for mailing and $20 extra take it as i bought fake cards instead. This is the said listing i bought, when i opened the mail i found out all the cards were fake except for the energy cards, this further proves to me that the fella knew he was scamming, he is also selling booster boxes on carousell so when he told me he was clueless i already believed it as a lie, he even took his carousell post down. (I tore into multiple cards to check btw) Seller was rude throughout the conversation and refused refund claiming i couldve swapped out the cards. Telegram channel is @pokeaddicttcg and his user is @pokeaddict, at first he said it was not him and then afterwards said its an old number he didnt use anymore. He tried to intimidate me by saying settle outside and asked me to pick up the phone call which my privacy settings didnt allow, he then tried calling after saving my contact which exposed his phone number, which matches the one i transferred to in the post. I have made a police report on this already just wanna warn everyone about the dangers online and to beware of this specific vendor :)
