I think I have a card buying problem... every time I go to the store I want to buy more Pokémon cards. I know I already have plenty of cards but I can't help myself. I know as a 22 year old college student this isn't a wise way to spend my money but it makes me happy. (and usually I'd be spending this money on junk food like candy - so maybe this is a healthier habit anyways?)
Anyone else in the same boat here?
I'm drowning in cards and idk what to do with all the repeats tbh
I also only play the game on the online tcg app, I don't know anyone irl to play with.
I mostly like to collect them because I like the artwork on the cards, I like how different artists have unique ways of drawing the Pokémon so it's nice to look through them.

Hey a small recomendation from someone who also collects them, Go to your local walmart or office store and pick up some trading card binder sleeves and a nice binder. I have almost 2 binder full now and it keeps them well organized and in good condition.

I used to have a binder full of them, I bet it's still somewhere at my parents house!
Anyway, I actually will occasionally pick up a pack of Pokemon cards nowadays because I use them for bookmarks! I leave them in my book when I finish so I know that I've already read it. That might be something you could use your extras for?

Heyyyy 21 year college student here! I don't actively collect ALL the cards anymore (maybe one day!) but I do collect new versions of my favorite pokemon!
I'm trying to get a complete Lucario card collection right now! I have 20/34 and it's honestly really refreshing to get back into pokemon cards after so long :) I still have 2 binders full from when I was a kid!

ohhh! i'm a super low-key card collector myself~
i used to play competitively a year ago, but work commitments have kinda made me have to step back from it! i still have my ho-oh/salazzle deck that worked a treat for me though c:
i've been trying to collect every lugia card again - but oof, money!
i'm here mostly for the art now! :'D

I've been collecting since 1999 so I know the feels

27 and still madly in love with the cards. I do tend to grab a booster or two every now and then, but mostly hunt at fleamarkets to fill up the old cards I'm missing in my binders.
Imo it's better to grab a booster than a pack of candy [emoji=coatl love]

I'm +10H ahead of FR time!
Replies may be slow, so sorry ;w;
I collect them for the artwork too. There's something so appealing about them. And there's so many different artists that have worked on them.
I actually have no idea how to play :'D
According to Pokellector I have 772 cards.
Something about my obsessive personality loves logging every one and filing them in a binder. I only found out about the site in january so had the entire collection to go through. Good for me though, I can work out what are duplicates much easier.

I don't really keep up with the new sets because I exclusively collect the Gen 1 cards.
And yet I still can't help buying pretty cards from the comic book store and filling up my card box with them haha
