Sell Us Your Bulk

Please read all of the required information below very carefully!

If you send bulk that does not meet the requirements below, it will be returned to you at your expense.

Bulk is considered to be any Pokémon card that is:

1. Near Mint

2. NOT a non-foil basic energy (special energy is fine as well as reverse holo basic energy!)

3. Not counterfeit

4. No world championship cards

5. We ask that when selling us bulk, please do not send us bulk that is sorted alphabetically, by set, type, color, nor by edition. Please sort by rarity (i.e. C/U vs. Rare vs. Reverse). We would like the bulk to be random, similar to how the cards would come out of a booster pack.

6. Trainers DO count as bulk

7. Code cards are NOT considered bulk and do not count towards your count!

8. Bulk can be from any set EXCEPT for prize series packs, as long as it meets the requirements above. As a store that runs officially sanctioned Pokémon events, we are NOT allowed to buy or sell cards from prize packs in any capacity, so we cannot take these cards for trade-ins, even from bulk. Bulk cards may also not be Promotional cards given to us directly by pokemon to hand out. This includes: Illustration Contest promos, Pokemon Day promos, Pokemon League Promos, and some others. If you have any questions, feel free to email us at store@thegamecapital.comBulk
