The Cards.

I'm not sure if there's a site which gives prices but you could check ebay and have a look at what sort of prices they're selling for.

CianRyan · 09-06-2010 10:29PM

I'd say take them into the likes of Forbidden Planet and ask in there.
Nerd shops FTW.

Hey hellboy99, and hey everyone! I know a thing or two about the cards so I'll have a guess at value from glancing at yours.
Unfortunately, the really valuable cards from the early sets are either first edition, or what's known as shadowless (Base Set cards only) - a very early print run with reduced shadows on the cards, sometimes different centering, many errors, and different copyright dates. It doesn't like the cards in your pictures are either. That's not to say they're not worth money, of course, but they might not be as valuable as they should be considering the money you spent on them.

Just getting them valued at the minute

I was always proud that I got all mine from trading. I bought one deck, the one with Gyarados, and never spent any more money on any of them. Got some great ones too, Alakazam, Wigglytuff, Clefable, Blastoise. Silly neighbours ftw!

It did help that I was given a huge amount of fake first edition Rocket cards... But they were free too. Also, if you see a shiny first ed Rocket Dratini, you should know better than to trade a Mewtwo for it.

I have a bunch of the original 150 pokemon cards.. a few duplicates if anyone wants to trade in Galway city lol? :pac:

Jazzkamiden · 06-07-2010 08:15AM

Saw D/P/Pt/HG/SS cards in a shop in my local shopping center. I've been so tempted to buy them. I think it's the shiny box which has attracted me.

Young lad is looking for a set of cards for X-Mas. Can anyone please tell me where I can buy these cards?

Most tescos sell them, or if you're in Dublin Gamersworld beside jervis centre sells them too.

SamIAmNot · 05-12-2010 03:11AM

I get mine in Argos or Smyths. But Argos is better value for money with a three pack of cards plus a small 2 card pack for like €12 I think... Not to sure at the moment.

AndrewR · 06-12-2010 12:58AM

Thanks lads,
Specificaly lookin 4 hg Ss triumpant cards can these b found n bricks n mortar sites or only online?

Atavan-Halen · 06-12-2010 05:46AM

Nope they're easily gotten in bricks and mortar shops here.

Banjo · 06-12-2010 02:43PM

The sets in Tesco are HG/SS Undaunted (2 packs, plus 1 Diamond/Pearl/Platinum pack) not Triumphant, far as I remember. Toymaster in Dublin have tonnes of different set boosters available, Smyths might as well but they're usually on a shelf behind customer service so it's hard to see what they've got without queuing up to ask.

Just Like Heaven · 08-12-2010 07:47PM

And where is the very best place to buy them online?

You could try The Card Cellar, they have a pretty good selection of stuff. There's always the usual places like ebay and amazon as well.

Just made an account, they're fair enough.

joepeger · 16-02-2011 01:02PM

Hey guys, was wondering if any of you have a Holographic charmander card, or if not, any sort of charmander card. I'm currently undertaking a scavenger hunt for charity and its one of the items on the list. I'd be willing to pay whatever you think is fair for it. If not any ideas how I'd go about getting one? Let me know ASAP as the hunt finishes this Friday. Cheers.

Joe

Tesco have the theme decks on offer at the moment. Down to 8.99 from 11.99.

Banjo · 03-03-2011 05:11PM

Saw that, but they only had the Espeon deck in my place. They've also removed all the decks from the new set (there were tonnes in there a couple of days ago) that came with Lucarios.
Bought one of the Espeon decks ages ago, the booster pack it came with had the other holographic Espeon in it allowing me to stage red hot espeon-on-espeon action events ever since.

wobbles · 03-03-2011 09:30PM

Theres loads of the lucario/tangela sets in my places + the feraligator/typlosion sets. Picked up 2 sets recently, the espeon and arcanine sets

Just Like Heaven · 04-03-2011 10:01AM

Damn my tesco has none of those, I really want the umbreon deck aswell.

Peyton Manning · 15-03-2011 10:01AM

Don't know if any of you lot are interested, but Im selling a bunch of cards I found cleaning out my old room. They're the Topps series, complete series 1 + 2 (#1-#117) that were doing the rounds in school yards back in the late 90's :pac: There's a lot of the TV cards and character cards too, about 300+ cards in total I reckon. Hopefully this isn't against the charter, just figured if there was any interest, it would be here!

If you put an ad up on adverts.ie and then link it here then that's ok but boards isn't the place for selling. All selling must be done on adverts.

Cheers, I actually had them up on adverts when I posted that - meant to mention it (assumed anyone who wanted to give a look click adverts in my profile so I didn't bother linking!)

Mr.Saturn · 24-03-2011 10:16PM

I was running through a list of rare cards, and their current worth, and my heart near dropped out my chest. The collection I let get babyripped by the toddler of the gaf would be worth a not too shabby amount this weather. Mind, I'd never sell it, but really, it's nice to have stuff to waggle in other people's faces.:P

The Cards.
