Questions

No. We do not sell online or post goods currently. This website is a stock list for information only. It is not an online shop and it does not take orders, payment, or postage.

There is no checkout, account, or delivery from this site. Listings are an invitation to treat, not an offer. Goods are collected in person in England. No contract is formed by using the website.

Identify the item, or compile a basket on this site, and contact us with that basket or the product page. We will indicate whether the item appears still to be available and, if so, when it may be collected.

A sale takes place only in person. You inspect the goods. If you are satisfied, you pay at that point. Until payment is completed, we remain free to sell the goods to another person.

Payment is due at the point of sale, after you have inspected the goods and confirmed that you are satisfied, and before the goods are released.

We accept cash in pounds sterling, UK bank transfer as cleared funds, and cryptocurrency limited to Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and Tether (USDT), in each case as agreed at the point of sale. We do not accept payment through this website.

We are not an FCA-authorised cryptoasset firm. We do not hold or convert cryptocurrency as a service. Bitcoin, Ether, and Tether are accepted, if at all, only as payment for goods at the point of sale.

No. We do not reserve, hold, or set aside stock, whether through this website, by message, or for an event table. That policy exists because items previously set aside have not been collected.

No enquiry creates a right to the goods. Until a contract is formed in person after inspection and payment, the item may be sold to someone else.

Your basket is a browser-based note that totals selected items so you may copy, share, or send them to us. It is stored on your device. You can also copy a link that rebuilds the same list on another phone.

It is not an order, offer, reservation, or checkout. We do not receive it unless you send it. Clearing it has no effect on our stock and creates no obligation on either party.

Displayed prices are indicative figures from our current list. They may change without notice and are not a standing offer. A price becomes binding only when we confirm it at the point of sale. Factory-sealed promotional singles may be listed as price on application.

Every photograph on this website is a catalogue or reference image. It is not a photograph of the particular card or product in our possession. Images exist only to identify the type of item. They are not a warranty as to condition, centering, grade, or the contents of sealed packaging.

The stock list is refreshed around 5am and 5pm UK time and shows a last-updated time. Records may still lag, fail to refresh, or display a previously saved list if a live update is unavailable. You must not rely on the website as a guarantee of availability or price. If something looks wrong, tell us. The goods, quantity, and price that apply are those inspected and agreed at the point of sale.

We do not offer returns, refunds, credits, replacements, or exchanges for change of mind once you have inspected the goods, confirmed that you are satisfied, and completed payment.

This policy protects the integrity of our stock. Cards and sealed products are susceptible to substitution and to the return of counterfeit or altered items.

Nothing in our Terms of Use takes away rights you cannot lawfully be asked to give up under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, for example where a fault or misdescription could not reasonably have been discovered on the inspection you were given. See the Terms of Use for the full wording.

We may, at our discretion, buy and trade singles, sealed products, and collections at 70 percent to 90 percent of current market price. The percentage depends on the card, its condition, and how quickly it sells, and is agreed in person before money changes hands.

Current market price is determined by Coastal Cards at the time of the transaction by reference to market information we reasonably consider appropriate. That determination is final for that purchase or trade. No purchase or trade is made through this website.

See /sell-to-us for what we buy and how to send a list.

Yes, when we have dates booked. Upcoming fairs and market dates are listed on /events. You can add a date to your calendar from that page.

Those dates are for finding us in person. Stock at an event may differ from the website list. Nothing is reserved from the site for an event table.

Sales at an event are still made in person after inspection. Where the law gives you a mandatory cancellation right for certain sales away from our usual business premises, that right is not taken away by our Terms of Use.

Factory sealed denotes a promotional card that remains in its original factory wrapping. Such items are listed as singles, not as sealed products such as Elite Trainer Boxes, and are typically listed as price on application.

PC stamped denotes a Pokémon Center stamp printed on the card. It is a description of that print feature, not a statement that the item is a sealed product.

A grade badge denotes that the card has been graded by the grading company shown, at the grade shown on the listing. You must still inspect the slab in person before payment.

Yes. More sealed TCG products are coming soon beyond Pokémon. Sealed booster packs, booster boxes and other sealed products for Magic: The Gathering, One Piece Card Game, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Disney Lorcana and Riftbound will join the stock list.

Those games are not live listings yet. Nothing is reserved from this website. See /coming-soon for the coming soon plan, and browse current Pokémon stock on /stock in the meantime.

No. Coastal Cards is an independent business. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Nintendo, Game Freak, The Pokémon Company, Wizards of the Coast, Bandai, Konami, Disney, Ravensburger, Riot Games, UVS Games, or the publishers of Magic: The Gathering, One Piece Card Game, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Disney Lorcana, or Riftbound.

Game names and logos on this site are used for identification only.

Coastal Cards trades around Chichester, West Sussex. We are establishing a physical premises around Chichester and a dedicated business telephone line.

A street address and telephone number will appear on the About page when published. Until then, do not treat any third-party listing as our premises or telephone number.

Messages sent to us are used to deal with the enquiry and any related in-person transaction, including sell-to-us enquiries.

The Privacy Notice at /privacy describes how personal data is processed, including browser storage, hosting, and your rights under UK data-protection law.

We aim to make the stock list usable with keyboard, screen readers, and the Accessibility control in the header. See /accessibility for the full statement and how to ask for a reasonable adjustment.
