Title: Pokemon Swap - any interest?
Post by: tikibirds on February 09, 2015, 02:22:49 PM

Would anybody be interested in a Pokemon theme swap? This would be a wishlist based swap for plushies, figures, ect - stuff people are looking for - NOT a "dump off all your unwanted pokemon cards onto someone else and call it a day" thing. 
I'm thinking $25 budget with a 2 month shopping time, I know alot of ebay pokemon sellers are in China/HK or Japan and that can take some time.

I would but anything I get would be limited to stores here--and at the moment I don't have disposable income for getting things--or shipping.

My local selection is pretty sad. I don't think walmart even sells pokemon stuff anymore, other then cards by the registers so I get most of my plushies from sellers in China. They are probably knock-offs but they are pretty cheap (usually under $10 and free shipping).

I might be interested. I love Pokemon! I collect Pokemon plushies. And I also like Pokemon figures, stickers, and other odd Pokemon themed things! :biggrin:

Should it be a straight up pokemon swap or an Anime/manga themed swap? it would still be wish listed based for figures/stickers/plushies, ect. Pokemon would still be included but I am thinking there may be more participants if the theme was broader..?

I don't really collect Pokemon or anime stuff... Bummer! Good luck though!


I think we need another random other collections swap soon....

I would not mind being in a pokemon swap will make a nice change  :biggrin:

It seems like there may be enough interest to do a straight up Pokemon Swap. The upside to that would be that we would all have a better idea of what we were shopping for and what our partners might like. Of course, a general anime/manga swap would be awesome too. The downside to that would be that we might not be as familiar with our partners anime/manga interests, but that's not really a big deal as long as everyone is detailed/descriptive in their wantlists. Personally, I would be be up for either.  ^.^

I hope this gets off the ground as an active swap. I actually found some little pokemon things at a local comic book store's 'mini convention' today that I went ahead and picked up just in case because I thought that they would make adorable extras for a swap on here XD

This sounds really fun! I'd be cool with either pokemon or a more general anime and manga theme.  There's a really great anime store near me, and I have a con coming up so I'd be able to get some really cool stuff.  The only problem is my feedback would probably be really low.  I have one feedback on here, and it's positive.  There is plenty of feedback on my ebay account, though.  So I guess I would be a maybe for this swap depending on feedback and such.

:O that sounds awesome. I sadly have very little money at the time!

Awesome! I'll keep an eye out for more news :)

I would be interested :) I love Pokemon and don't yet have a lot of merch - at least not compared to my pony collection. In Seattle, there are import stores where I can find lots of cool import stuff, but I tend to not buy much for myself. It would be lots of fun to shop for someone else!

Looking at things realistically, I probably wouldn't be able to do this. But I'd definitely be stalking the brags.
