Help Bring the Purdie Family Home 🏠

Ms. Purdie is a disabled veteran and single mom to three boys with autism. In August, they lost everything in a house fire. They are currently living in a hotel, trying to piece their lives back together.

She served us; now it’s our turn to serve her.

We are rallying to get them out of a hotel room and back into a real home. Your donation is the fuel they need to rebuild.

Please share! Let's show them what community looks like. ❤️🇺🇸

We've made the difficult decision to stop selling sealed Pokémon products in our store.

This was not an easy choice. The current market, driven by speculation and scalping, isn't what this hobby is about. We're frustrated, just like many of you.

Our commitment is to the players, not the speculators. We're shifting our full focus to Pokémon singles—the best way to get the cards you love.

This was a hard decision for us to come to, but we feel it is what's in the best interest for us, the collector community, and even Pokémon Company International. Pokémo...
