Picked up this CD Promo Blastoise off eBay but the slab - especially the back - was so badly scratched I had to return it. Could have maybe discerned some of this from the scans but was horrible in person. Oh well! The Charizard came in acceptable condition at least.

Pokemon Cards

Welcome to the Pokémon TCG Mantel Group! This is a space built by and for collectors who love everything about the Pokémon Trading Card Game—whether you’re chasing vintage Base Set holos, ripping modern ETBs, or just starting your binder journey. Our goal is to build a fun, friendly, and engaging community where collectors at all levels feel welcome. Share your latest pulls, post your favorite cards, talk grading, trade tips, or just show off your evolving collection. We’re here for the nostalgia, the thrill of the hunt, and the stories behind the cards. You’ll find updates on the latest sets, market chatter, mail days, and maybe even a few giveaways along the way. Whether you’re into competitive play or just here for the art and memories, this group is for you. Let’s keep things respectful, helpful, and positive—just like any good Pokémon trainer would. Thanks for being here, and let’s catch ‘em all—together!
