Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Official Troll and Toad Nationals Thread

While our specialists will be Pokemon specialists, you can bring your Magic/Yugioh/Naruto/etc cards and they can/will make an offer on them
 
The trade-in bonuses values do apply! As by what we mean alphabetically, the best way to do it is simply make all your first editions/reverse foils in alphabetical order in one stack and your commons/uncommons/rares in a separate stack in alphabetical order.

To be entered into the giveaway, we'll have a booth set up where everyone can sign up at this years Nationals. A winner will be picked by either one of our staff or someone representing Nationals as a whole. The winner will receive "a free, all expenses paid entry into the 2011 Pokemon National Tournament, including round trip airfare, 3 nights accommodations, and a paid entry fee.(Valued at $1000). The giveaway will be held immediately following the conclusion of the Championship. The winner need not be present to receive his prize."

We're interested in buying ANYTHING Pokemon related! So bring whatever you want to sale! And we looking forward to seeing all of you!

Sounds good. Thank you very much for the prompt answer!
 
We'll be buying at our normal discounted prices, which by some standards is extreme :). All joking aside, there may be a few special discounts/savings available, but I"m suppose to keep hush hush about it.
 
When you say you guys cant buy Japanese cards, does that mean only Japanese cards, or all foreign cards in general? Because I have a ton of old German cards I would Like to get rid of.
 
Do you want common/uncommon Trainer cards mixed in or do you want them seperate. I would assume it would be easier to do them separately, but whatever you want is what i will do.
 
Just for some clarification as I have received a few calls:

I have a stack of Commons, Uncommons and Rares from all sets. Are you saying to take my cards and sort them A-Z or do you want them in order like listed in the Research Tower Link above?

Type A: In the Tower, it goes Aaron's Collection (UN), Abra (C), Absol (R), Aerodactyl GL (C). In order by Beginning Letter and then tapered down by sequential letters (Aa, Abr, Abs, Ae)
~or~
Type B: Have them just alphabetically: Abra, Aerodactyl, Aaron's, Absol in no specific order. Just all the Pokemon starting with the Letter A grouped together.

Thanks for the clarification.
 
It's awesome to be going, and thanks for such warm praise!

To answer your questions..

1. It will vary depending on rarity, the number cards, and other factors. I spoke to our Pokemon specialist and he said that it may be different than our printed buylist on our website depending on all the usual supply/demand and such.

2. We will have all the usual card supplies as you mentioned, but the extra goodies we're bringing are video games, plush toys, and other small toys.

3. Our schedule is we will officially "open" at 4pm Thursday and stay open until 8pm. That Friday we'll be open from 8am - 7pm, Saturday at 8am - 7pm, and finally on Sunday we'll be open from 8am - 4pm. So yes we'll be open on Thursday for you =).

4. We will accept all of those as forms of payment

What is your booth's hours of operation thoughout the weekend? Will you be open on Weds or Thus?

If you read the thread you would see the hours they are open.
 
Can we expect prices similar to your websites everyday prices or should we expect a great deal of inflation?
 
When purchasing cards, is it under the table, or do you provide a receipt for returning cards? Thanks in advance.
 
Hey everyone!

This is Jonathon from TrollandToad.com, and the awesome people here at PokeGym gave us permission to start up a thread for anyone curious about what we'll be offering at nationals, answering any questions you may have about what we'll be offering at the tournament, our giveaway that was already mentioned in another thread here, and whatever else I can help you with!

So again thanks to everyone here at PokeGym for their hospitality.

Now at nationals we'll be focusing on both buying and selling cards for the most part. Our team of Pokemon specialist will be on hand to quickly take care of any orders you may want to make with us as well as answer any questions you may have. No order will be too big or too small, so if you want to sell or buy a single card or a whole collection, we will be able to assist you.

So if you have any questions just post them here!
Will you only be selling Pokemon cards or other types of cards aswell
 
Hi, Jonathan AKA TrollandToad. My dad wants to let you know to bring all of your Yu-Gi-Oh!

back into it and am looking for some good stuff to help my new Infernity Deck. Mainly Beetles,
Archfiends and Destroyers. 1, 2-3, 2 correspondantly. Bring other stuff if you can.

Will you guys not be buying bulk after Nats online? I have a lot of cards that I'm still sorting through and won't have them in time for Nats, so I plan on selling them online/through the mail at a later date, sometime this summer. Will I still be okay with that?
 
Many Questions, Many Answers

Do you want common/uncommon Trainer cards mixed in or do you want them seperate. I would assume it would be easier to do them separately, but whatever you want is what i will do.

It would be easier to separate, but if they're not its fine

Can we expect prices similar to your websites everyday prices or should we expect a great deal of inflation?

You can expect similar prices, though the normal supply/demand rules apply!

We'll only be bringing Pokemon cards for this event, however if you want to purchase another CCG such as Yugioh, MTG, Naruto, etc, then we can offer them on our website at the same insanely low prices that we always do.

When purchasing cards, is it under the table, or do you provide a receipt for returning cards? Thanks in advance.

We will be providing receipts

Where can I find your bulk rates?
