try Ebay. because of some harassment that's occured in the past, we don't allow members to sell stuff on the forums, since you have to give out personal info.

If you're looking for suggestions of places you can sell them at, that's fine.

However, please note that for-sale ads (and by extension eBay auctions) aren't allowed here, just in case you were considering asking anyone here to buy them. We aren't equipped for that kind of liability.

EDIT: Whoops, COMBO MOD RESPONSE 2x!!!! +500

I'm so glad I didn't sell my cards because I was the only one outta my friends that knew how to play it right when we were all into it, and I recently revived it at my school ^__^ of course since my school had banned it it's like an underground pokemon leage bought alot of cards off of ebay and made me nice profit selling them at school and now we all gather on a normal basis and me and my friend hold a tournament and we usually have like a deck or two as a prize or a good card but we actually haven't had a tournament in a while school's been a wee bit busy.

Zero One - In theory I should be apalled by that, but I find it pretty funny, acutally. However, we are getting off the subject a bit...

Sparten1056 - There are two ways to sell something like this: direct and consignment. For direct, you locate a buyer who wants it direcly, and sell to them, like eBay. For consignment, you find someone with a shop that people go to, and pay them a percentage to display your wares for you. You may try local sports memorabilia shops. Some of them have branced out and do generic trading cards (not just sports ones) and can reach are large audience quickly.

I think eBay is your best option, personally.

Yeah try eBay, just be careful that the person who you sell it to has done buying before and has good reviews.

If you tell me the rare cards, I can tell you about how much they're worth as I collect Pokemon cards for fun...

i have a holographic japanese fossil mew. a holo japanese rocket charizard.... excellent condition. I heard that the mew was about 40 bucks

japanese rocket evee, flareon, jolteon, and vaporeon. Evee is common, and the other 3 are uncommon. Wonder how much they would be together.

Hate to bust your bubble (ironically, Mew's got a bubble too...o_O), but...the japanese fossil Mew's not worth much now as they were given out at the first movie (in English). I'd say that the Mew is worth about $4.00 now and the Charizard, since it's rocket, is probably about $5.00, if you sold them on eBay.

The Eevee set is worth about $2.00.

^^;

The cards really go down in their worth as time goes on, eh? I got a holo Charizard for $10.00 while it used to be $70.00...o_o
