Selling to us
Binders, shoeboxes, a single slab, or forty thousand commons from 1999 — bring the whole thing. We sort it, price it against current market, and tell you what it’s worth. No pressure either way.
You shouldn’t have to guess what a dealer will offer, and you shouldn’t get a different number depending on how you look that day. Here’s what we pay, the same for everyone.
Store credit pays more than cash and spends on anything in the case, at any show. If you were planning to buy cards anyway, it’s worth more to you.
No need to sort or price anything first. Sorting your own bulk won’t raise our offer, so save yourself the evening.
Three steps
Fill in the form below and we’ll reply the same day. Send photos back with your reply — binder pages and your best twenty cards — and we’ll give you a range before you drive anywhere.
Good cards get priced individually against live market data. The rest goes at our published bulk rate. You watch us do it — nothing happens out of sight.
One number for cash, a higher one for store credit. If consignment makes more sense for what you’ve got, we’ll say so — even though it pays us less up front.
If a collection is worth more than we can pay out at once — or you’d simply rather not sell at a wholesale rate — we’ll sell it for you and split the proceeds. You keep ownership the whole time, and everything is written down and signed before we take anything.
Best suited to high-value singles, graded cards, and vintage.
Bring cards, leave with cards. We’ll work out a trade against the same published rates, and there’s no minimum — a couple of duplicates is a perfectly good reason to stop by the table.
About us
Pono Poke Center is a retailer of new and pre-owned trading cards and collectibles, specialising in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. We sell singles, sealed product, graded cards, vintage, and hobby supplies — in person at trading card shows and events, through online marketplaces, on live-selling platforms, and direct to collectors.
Alongside retail, we purchase collections from the public for resale and offer consignment for higher-value pieces. Our buy rates are published rather than negotiated case by case, we price against live market data in front of the customer, and every consignment is documented and signed before we take possession of anything.
The business is family-run and operates on a straightforward premise: a card is only worth what someone will pay for it, and everyone involved is better off when that number is arrived at openly. We keep cost basis on every item, honour our published rates whether the collection is worth forty dollars or four thousand, and treat the people across the table as customers we expect to see again rather than transactions to be maximised.
The name
Pono is a Hawaiian word. It means righteousness — doing what is right, in balance, whether or not anyone is watching.
In a hobby where plenty of people get taken advantage of, that’s a deliberate choice about how to run a card business. We publish our rates instead of sizing people up. We price in front of you. We’ll tell you when consignment beats selling, even when selling pays us more.
We intend to still be here in ten years. That only works one way.
Get in touch
Buying, selling, hunting for one particular card, or just curious where we’ll be next — this reaches us either way.
We usually reply the same day, and always within two.
