PokeCards Online is an online Magic: The Gathering store that sells sealed product and nothing else: booster packs, booster boxes, collector boosters, bundles, Commander decks, starter decks, draft night boxes and Secret Lair drops. There are 72 listings across eight categories, priced in US dollars, and every one of them is a factory-sealed unit rather than a single card.
This page is the honest version of who we are: what we stock, how an order is checked before it leaves, what the delivery and returns terms actually are, and the things we will not claim to get a sale.

About us: the one-minute version
We are a sealed-product Magic shop. That single decision shapes everything else on this site: the catalogue is organised by product type rather than by set, the photographs show boxes rather than cards, and the advice on each category page is about what is inside the packaging rather than about a card’s price history.
Sealed product is a different business from singles. A box either is or is not factory sealed, a pack either is or is not from the print run it claims, and the condition of the wrap is the whole product. That makes it a business of checks, which is the part of the shop we care most about.
We are not a marketplace and we do not drop-ship. Stock on the site is stock in the building, which is why a listing that says in stock is a listing we can pack today and why a pre-order is dated rather than open-ended.
If the about us section still leaves a question open, the contact page reaches a person rather than a queue.
We would rather lose a sale than misdescribe buy mtg cards online, because a return costs more than a cancelled order.
Nothing about sealed mtg product is outsourced; the same small team buys, checks and packs every order.
What an MTG trading card store should do for you
An MTG trading card store earns its margin on two things: knowing what is inside a box and getting it to you undamaged. The first is research, because the contents of a booster box, a bundle or a draft night box are printer decisions that a shop has to learn and describe accurately. The second is packing, and it is where most online card shops lose customers.
Our answer to the first is that the category pages describe contents from the publisher’s own product pages rather than from memory, and we say when a number is a publisher figure rather than a measurement of our own stock. Our answer to the second is in the packing section below.
The third thing a store should do is tell you when it cannot help. If a product is not on the site, we do not take an order and hope. If a card you want only exists as a single, we say so rather than selling you a box that might contain it.

What we stock: sealed MTG product first
The catalogue runs across eight categories. Booster packs are the entry point, booster boxes are the display-size purchase, and collector boosters are the premium pack with foils and alternate treatments. Bundles sit between packs and boxes, with packs plus lands and a storage box.
On the play side there are Commander decks, which are complete 100-card decks, starter decks for a first game, and draft night boxes built for four players. Secret Lair drops are the collector end: fixed card lists, alternate art, a single print run and no reprint.
What we do not stock is as useful to know. There are no singles, no graded cards and no loose bulk. If you are building a specific deck and need one card, a sealed box is the wrong purchase and we would rather tell you that than take the order.

How to buy MTG cards online from us
Buying is deliberately plain. Pick a category, open the listing, add it to the basket and check out. There is no account requirement to browse, no spin-to-win pop-up and no countdown timer pretending stock is about to run out.
The prices you see are the prices you pay, in US dollars. Delivery is free once an order passes $1,000, and below that the carrier rate is calculated at checkout by the carrier rather than by us. Orders placed before 5pm leave the same working day.
If you are buying for someone else, the delivery address can differ from the billing address, and the packing slip goes in without prices on it. That is the simplest way to send a box as a gift without the recipient seeing what it cost.

Magic the Gathering cards across the sets we cover
The catalogue spans current and recent releases rather than a single era: Marvel Super Heroes, Star Trek, Final Fantasy, Fallout, The Lord of the Rings, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Secrets of Strixhaven, Aetherdrift, Lorwyn Eclipsed and Modern Horizons 3, among others.
That spread is deliberate. A player who started with one set still needs packs from the set their group is drafting, and a collector chasing a treatment wants the specific release it appeared in. Carrying one set deeply would make the shop easier to run and much less useful.
Where a set is out of print, we say so on the listing rather than implying a restock is coming. Where a product is a pre-order, the listing carries the release date the publisher announced.
Everything you read about about us here describes how the shop actually works, not how a template says it should.

Pricing, stock counts and the claims we will not make
Three claims you will not read on this site. We do not promise that a pack contains a particular card, because that is decided by the printer. We do not promise that sealed product will rise in value. And we do not describe a product as rare when the publisher has printed it to demand.
What we do promise is that the price on the listing is the price at checkout, that the photograph is of the product rather than a stock render pulled from a distributor, and that a listing marked in stock is packable that day.
Prices move, because sealed Magic prices move with the secondary market and with supply. When a price changes it changes on the listing, and an order already placed at the old price is honoured at the old price.

How an order is checked and packed
Every unit is inspected on arrival: the shrink wrap for tears and re-sealing, the box corners for crushing, and the printed code for a match against the set it claims to be. A box that fails that check does not go on sale, and if it fails after it has been listed the listing comes down.
Packing is sized to the product. A single pack goes in a rigid mailer with stiffening. A booster box goes in a shipping carton with void fill so it cannot move, because a box that slides inside a carton arrives with crushed corners and a crushed corner is the difference between a collectible and a return.
Every parcel is tracked, and the tracking number reaches your inbox when the label is scanned rather than when it is printed. If a parcel arrives damaged, photograph the outer carton before opening it and contact us within 48 hours.

Delivery and returns, in plain terms
Orders placed before 5pm leave the same working day with FedEx, DHL, USPS or, for local addresses, a local delivery company. Delivery is free on orders over $1,000. Transit time after dispatch depends on the carrier and the destination, and the tracking link is the only reliable estimate once a parcel is moving.
Returns run to 48 hours from purchase, and they cover sealed, unopened product. Once the wrap is off, a box cannot be resold as sealed, so opened product is not returnable. That rule is not us being difficult; it is the only rule that keeps the next customer’s box genuinely sealed.
If something is wrong that is not your fault, a damaged box or the wrong item, the 48-hour window is not a technicality we hide behind. Contact us, send a photograph, and we will sort it out.

Sealed product glossary: every term on this site
Sealed Magic has its own vocabulary, and half the confusion in a card shop comes from two people using the same word for different things. These are the terms as we use them here, so a listing and the category page above it always mean the same thing.
A play booster is the current draftable pack, 14 cards. A collector booster is the premium pack, 15 cards, with foils and special treatments. A draft booster is the older 15-card pack that play boosters replaced in most sets, and it still appears in some products, which is why the pack count on a listing matters.
A bundle is packs plus lands, dice and a storage box rather than a box of packs. A booster box is 30 play boosters in most current sets, and older or special sets differ, so the listing states the count. A case is several boxes shipped together rather than a single box.
| Term | What it means here |
|---|---|
| Play booster | 14-card draftable pack, current sets |
| Collector booster | 15-card premium pack with foils and treatments |
| Draft booster | older 15-card pack still used by some sets |
| Booster box | 30 play boosters in most current sets |
| Bundle | packs plus lands, dice and a storage box |
| Draft night box | 12 play boosters plus a prize pack, for four players |
| Commander deck | 100-card deck that is ready to play |
| Secret Lair drop | fixed card list, alternate art, single print run |
| Case | several booster boxes shipped together |
Two more terms are worth knowing before you buy anything. Sealed means the factory wrap is intact and has not been re-shrunk; a rewrap is a box that has been opened and re-wrapped, and it is the main counterfeit risk in this market. Pre-order means the product has not released yet and ships on or after the date printed on the listing.
None of this changes what is inside a box. It only gives you the words to compare two listings without guessing, which is most of what buying sealed product well actually consists of.

Where to start on this site
If you know what you want, the category pages are the fastest route: each one lists every product in that category with prices, contents and the difference between the options. If you are deciding between two product types, the guides explain the trade-offs in the language of per-pack cost rather than headline price.
If you are new to the game, start with the starter decks page rather than with packs. A starter deck is a complete game; packs are a hobby. That one distinction saves most new players their first $100.
And if you have a question that none of it answers, the contact page is the last link on every page for a reason. We answer in writing, usually inside one working day, and the answer is the same one we would give a friend.
We would rather lose a sale than misdescribe about us, because a return costs more than a cancelled order.
