Pokemon Buy List Guide

Welcome to Retroble's Pokémon Buy List!

We've designed this tool to help you easily price and sell your Pokémon cards. Follow these simple steps to sell your cards and get paid fast!


What’s a Buy List?

Our Buy List allows you to:

Search for your Pokémon cards and add them to your cart to sell to us

Check out and provide your contact details

Ship your cards to us, and we’ll send payment once they arrive!


How to Use the Buy List

Search for your card by name, set, or collector number.

Add to Cart the cards you want to sell.

Continue by providing your contact details and preferred payment method.

Ship your cards to us using the instructions we’ll email.

Once your cards arrive, we’ll inspect them and send you payment within 48 hours (for most collections).


What If My Card Isn't Showing in the Search?

If you can’t find your card, try:

Searching by the card name, set name, or collector number.

Adding more details to refine the search.


Grading Your Cards

When selecting your card's condition, use Retrobles Card Grading Chart.

Near Mint (NM):

A Near Mint card looks like it has never been played without sleeves. Small allowances can be made, but the card generally shows no wear.

The border of NM card can have small white spots, but they must be very few and very small. When the card is inspected under bright daylight, the surface must generally appear clean. It can have a few minor spots, but scratches can never be allowed for NM cards.

Light Play (LP)

A Light Played card looks as if it has been used without sleeves for an extended period of time.

A Light Played card is clearly legal for play in a sleeved deck. It has also not been tampered with

Poor (P)

A Poor card has damage that cannot normally have stemmed from regular use of the card.

A card in Poor condition is literally destroyed. It is either obviously illegal for tournament play or has been tampered with in ways that destroy its worth almost completely

If unsure about your card's grade, reach out to us for assistance.


Shipping Your Cards

When sending your cards to us, please include:

Your name

Contact details

Order number

Make sure to remove any inner sleeves from the cards. Cards above £5 can be sent in standard penny sleeves. For cards under £5, secure them in a deck box or bundle box. Add padding (tissue paper or bubble wrap) to avoid damage during shipping.

Buy List Errors & Pricing

Buy List Prices are based on marketplace data, but may sometimes be inaccurate.

We adjust offers if the condition or version of a card doesn’t match the listing.

Cards with limited availability or those printed between 1999 and 2016 may have pricing errors.

If you notice incorrect pricing or want a firm offer, contact us before shipping your cards.


Changes to Your Offer

While we strive to offer accurate prices, some factors may cause us to adjust your offer, such as:

Condition mismatches (cards are not as listed)

Proxies or counterfeits detected

Market shifts (e.g., reprints or bans)

Pricing Error (marketplace data may be incorrect on rare occasions)

If an adjustment is necessary, we’ll always contact you for approval before processing payment.


Selling High-End Cards or Large Collections

Limit: £200 per card, with a maximum cart value of £1,000.

Any cards over £200 please reach out for accurate quotes

Due to markplaces having less higher end cards pricing may be inaccurate
