Yes. Every card listed by pokecard is checked for set number, language, surface condition, edge wear, centering, and obvious counterfeit tells before it is offered for sale. Graded slabs are matched against PSA or BGS certification details when available, and raw cards are described conservatively so collectors know exactly what they are buying.

Rare-card alerts
Join the notify list for chase cards, out-of-stock slabs, and fresh trade-ins.
Near Mint means a clean collector-grade card with only tiny handling marks, if any. Lightly Played may show minor whitening, faint scratches, or small edge wear while still looking strong in a binder or deck sleeve. Damaged means creases, dents, water marks, peeling, heavy whitening, or other flaws that materially affect value.
Yes. The shop is built around a grading filter so you can separate PSA slabs, BGS slabs, and raw singles quickly. Collectors hunting investment pieces can stay with graded cards, while competitive players can browse raw deck staples without digging through slab listings.
When a rare card is unavailable, you can leave your email for a restock alert. We notify you when the same card, set, condition, or grading category is listed again. Alerts are especially useful for chase cards, vintage holos, and low-population graded slabs.
Start by sending clear front and back photos, the set name or card number if you know it, and your expected condition. For accepted cards, pack each card in a penny sleeve and top loader, sandwich the stack between cardboard, then ship by tracked courier to pokecard, 42 Collector’s Lane, Neo-Tokyo District, 110001. We confirm condition after inspection and share a buy or trade-in offer.
Singles ship in a sleeve, top loader or semi-rigid holder, team bag, cardboard support, and a rigid mailer. Higher-value orders receive extra padding and tracking. Slabbed cards are wrapped separately so the case does not rub against other items in transit.
Most ready-stock orders are dispatched within 1–2 working days. Delivery time depends on your city and courier route. Returns or exchanges are considered within the stated window only if the card arrives materially different from its listing or is damaged in transit. Cash on delivery availability may vary by order value, location, and risk checks.
Yes, the Pokémon TCG has crossed the million-dollar conversation at the very top end of the hobby. The most famous example is the Pikachu Illustrator card, with private sales and high-profile purchases reported in the multi-million-dollar range depending on grade, provenance, and market timing.
If “No. 1” means the most iconic collector card, many collectors point to the 1999 Base Set Charizard holo, especially in high grade. If it means the rarest and most valuable trophy-style card, Pikachu Illustrator is usually considered the headline grail.
Rankings change because trophy cards, prototype cards, and low-population promos surface irregularly. After Pikachu Illustrator, collectors often discuss cards such as Trophy Pikachu promos, No. 1 Trainer cards, and rare tournament prize cards among the next tier of extreme rarity.
A bulk lot of 1000 common and uncommon Pokémon cards can cost far less than a lot containing holos, vintage cards, sealed promos, or chase rares. As a rough collector-market idea, unsorted modern bulk may be relatively inexpensive, while curated lots with rare cards can rise sharply. Condition, era, language, and whether valuable cards are included matter more than the number alone.
