Who we are

KaraCardz is an independent Pokémon TCG business based in Germany. We turned our passion for collecting into a brand that now serves collectors, players and investors across the German-speaking world.

What sets us apart from traditional card shops is that Pokémon TCG is part of our everyday lives. On eBay Live, we open booster packs and auction singles; on Instagram, we keep the community up to date; in our shop, we curate only what we would buy ourselves.

Collectors. Streamers. Dealers. Three roles, one brand.

Our mission

We make the Pokémon TCG market in the German-speaking world more honest, fair and transparent—so collecting, trading and investing can be fun again, on both sides of the card.

How it all began

Pokémon is more than a trend to us. We grew up with Charizard, Mewtwo and Blastoise, played through the games on Game Boy and collected the cards too. Everyone has a favourite Pokémon; Niklas’s is still Lugia. The TCG and Pokémon games simply belong together for us—that was true in childhood and remains true today.

Our passion for streaming has been with us just as long. What began as a hobby in front of a webcam is now the heart of KaraCardz: opening booster packs live, explaining singles and sharing knowledge. Over the years, we have learned a lot about both old WOTC cards and new sets, how to recognize a good card and what it is really worth.

Our values

Six principles you can hold us to. If we don’t live up to them, tell us.

Honest evaluations

We describe condition as it is. No dressing things up, no hidden creases. If a card is EXC, we say EXC.

Fair trading

Prices reflect the real market: eBay sales, auctions and actual transaction data, whether we are selling to you or buying from you.

Secure shipping

Toploaders, team bags, Cardsavers or cardboard depending on value. Premium packaging is standard; shipments are insured.

On equal terms

You are a collector, and so are we. No lowball offers, seller tricks or buyer runarounds. We speak plainly.

Live & community

Live shows on eBay, Instagram Stories and contact by DM. We are approachable, not hidden behind a contact form.

Professional standards

Pre-grading based on clear criteria, certificate IDs for every graded card and transparent reports. Collector-professional standards, not a hobby basement.
