Starting a Pokémon collection without going broke

Trading card collecting has a reputation for expensive chase cards, but the day-to-day fun of it is much cheaper than the headlines suggest. Most collectors build around a theme they like — a type, a set, a favourite Pokémon — rather than one grail card.

That is where card lots come in. Instead of paying single-card prices, a lot bundles a handful of cards around a theme for one small price. It is the fastest way to fill gaps, get playable duplicates, or just enjoy the surprise of what turns up.

Our lots are pre-owned and photographed as they are, so you can see exactly what you are getting before you buy. Condition is played — these are cards to enjoy and shuffle, not slab and store — which keeps them affordable.

Pair a couple of themed lots with a cheap binder and you have a collection going for the price of a single boosted booster box. Have a look through the trading cards aisle to see what is in.
