Hello,
I recently started collecting all the reverse holos from the EX-Series. Sadly, Team Rocket Returns and Hidden Legends were never released in german so I am having trouble finding these cards here. Is there a good place/site to buy a bulk of these reverses in the US/Canada/UK to save some money considering the high shipping costs?
Thanks,
Tomas
Try cardmarket, will save you tons on shipping and customs because it’s EU based.
Cheers!
Troll&Toad has a cheap $5 shipping option to europe. You also most likely won’t have to pay import taxes since they ship via Switzerland.
I’ll have to warn you about card conditions though.
Side note: Switzerland is not part of the European Union so if the value of the purchase is shown outside of the package and if it’s over $23, you have to pay import taxes.
But what I’ve found out though from my experience with Troll and Toad is that they don’t usually put the value on the package when you buy singles from them, but when you buy stuff like booster packs they will (I don’t know why). So if you are doing a binder collection I think Troll and Toad is a fine option. The $5 shipping option is great but it’s also a bit slow (cards can take 3 weeks to show up).
Like Poke said, TrollNToad is alright but they package their cards (if more then one/multiple) like 2 year olds. They stack a bunch of cards in one sleeve which is not cool if your supposed to buy “NM” cards. As he stated, condition wise, it can vary. I have bought NM cards that actually looked “NM” and others that look “LP” but stated as “NM”. I understand that grading cards is subjective.
