Selling/Buying Cards
Selling Your Pokémon Cards
Brief Description
Pocket Collectables will sell your Pokémon cards live on Whatnot, the leading online auction platform for collectibles. All auctions will start at a $2 opening bid to encourage competitive bidding. Please note: we cannot guarantee how much your cards will sell for. After the sale, Whatnot takes their commission and processing fees, and then Pocket Collectables will take a 10% commission based on the amount remaining. You will receive the final balance after all fees and commissions are deducted.

Buying Cards

We typically offer around 75-80% of the current market value, depending on the condition and demand of the cards. To get started, contact us at info@pocketcollectablesllc.com with photos and a brief description of your cards. We'll respond quickly with a fair offer.
