How to Safely Trade Pokémon Cards Through the Mail
Card-for-card trades with someone in another state: agreeing terms, declared values and shipping.
Agree on the exact cards\nList every card on both sides, including set and number. Agree on a declared value for each — this is the value you both accept for the trade, not an appraisal.\n\n## Create a trade deal\nUse the deal creator and choose Trade. Each side lists its cards and declared values. The service fee is based on those declared values and shown before approval.\n\n## Shipping\nBoth traders ship to our facility. We record each package and forward each side to the right person once both have arrived. If one side never arrives, the other side is held and both parties are contacted.\n\n## Remember\nWe document packages; we do not authenticate or grade cards. Ask for detailed photos before you agree.
We facilitate transactions, coordinate shipping and document packages. We do not authenticate, grade or appraise cards, and we do not guarantee authenticity. Item descriptions and photos are supplied by sellers.
