Here's what I am offering.
1. Free subscription to this newsletter with frequent updates on the eBay store and Pokemon market thoughts
2. Alerts and direct to subscriber offers
3. Access to discounted TCG related items (binders, penny sleeves, toploaders, semi-rigid card holders, team bags, etc.)
4. Access to me via email (probably not worth the pixels on the screen, but hey... it's better than nothing!)
Here's what is really going on...
I've been buying and selling bulk pokemon and some collections.
To do that, I've been buying sealed Pokemon to offer for trade for bulk.
Along the way, I've developed a few relationships and have had a few opportunities to get some good items- but never pull the trigger beyond buying for personal/future use.
I now want to set up a channel via email that is exclusive to people who've found me on eBay and purchased an item, got the link, came here, and subscribed.
The number of folks who actually make it to this page is exceedingly low. Virtually NOBODY clicks links in the card shipments- so membership in this little group will be fairly exclusive. Like SERIOUSLY low.
I am actively expanding into sealed Japanese Pokemon right now.
When I get 'good' opportunities- I will send them along to you. If you want, first come first serve- respond to the email and I will send a paypal invoice. (G&S of course).
There it is. Free subscription to a pokemon market discussion and exclusive access to 'opportunities' that I can scratch up...
Just sign up above and I'll be in your inbox soon.
(oh, there's a little bonus for you as well, see below...)
Be Good!

Your Bonus: The Unbent Playbook – Bend eBay Auctions to Your Will
Most collectors wander into eBay like kids in a candy store—clicking on shiny listings, bidding too soon, and then wondering why they paid too much. How to Buy Pokémon Cards on eBay is for you—the collector or investor who wants to bend eBay auctions to your will, with strategies that pair perfectly with Unbent Edge for ongoing wins. Inside, Commander Curtis lays out a battle plan that keeps your emotions in check and your wallet intact. You’ll:
- Define Your Mission: Decide whether you’re flipping, investing, or building a personal vault (with tips on trends like vintage surges up 3,261%), so every bid aligns with your goals and avoids impulse buys.
- Search Where Others Don’t: Use laser-focused filters and “Seller’s Other Items” tactics to dig up hidden listings, including auction trends like Friday "beer bidding" spikes that savvy buyers exploit.
- Bid Like You Mean It: Let the amateurs squabble over breadcrumbs; you’ll learn to swoop in at the last second with your maximum bid—backed by examples—and either win at your price or walk away grinning, saving 20–50% on average deals.
- Work the System: Deploy Watch & Wait, Newly Listed, and Late Low Ball strategies to get sellers courting you with lower prices and discounts—no confrontation, just results backed by real auction examples.
Commander Curtis would tell you there are two kinds of people: those who let eBay’s psychology play them, and those who learn the rules and play eBay. This guide will put you firmly in the second camp. Grab it, read it, and start collecting like a pro while everyone else gets bent by the auctions.
