Pokémon cards

Packs · ETBs · Boxes · Singles · Slabs

Sealed Pokémon TCG product, singles and graded slabs on Chicago's far Southeast Side. Come rip a pack at the counter.

What's in the case

  • Booster packs: single packs to rip at the counter.
  • Elite Trainer Boxes (ETBs): packs plus sleeves, dice and energy cards. The go-to gift.
  • Booster boxes and bundles: for collectors chasing a whole set.
  • Singles: pick the exact card you need instead of gambling on packs.
  • Graded slabs: PSA, CGC and BGS cards you can hold before you buy.

New sets sell through fast. If you're after something specific, DM us on Instagram before you make the trip.

Buying for a kid?

The most common question at the counter. Here's the short version:

Just starting out

Grab a few booster packs. Opening them is the fun part, and it's the cheapest way to find out whether they're into it.

Birthday or holiday gift

An Elite Trainer Box. It looks like a gift, has several packs inside, and comes with the sleeves and dice they need to actually play.

They want one specific Pokémon

Buy the single. Chasing one card through packs can take dozens of packs. Buying the card itself is almost always cheaper.

Not sure which set they collect? Bring a photo of their binder and we'll point you in the right direction.

Selling Pokémon cards

We buy Pokémon too: singles, binders, sealed product and slabs. Holos and full-art cards in clean condition are what move the needle. Bulk commons are worth a lot less, but we'll still look.
