The Pokemon Company has reportedly implemented a new policy at official trading card events that bans the sale of graded slabs and Pokemon Center products. This move is described as part of a broader crackdown on scalping activities within the TCG community.
Reported policy blocks graded cards and Pokemon Center items from sanctioned venues.
The policy targets two specific categories: professionally graded cards (slabs) and items purchased directly from The Pokemon Company's online store, Pokemon Center. Both are now prohibited for sale at sanctioned events organized by or affiliated with TPCi.
According to reports from PokeBeach, the ban applies specifically to transactions occurring within event venues. This policy change is reported as part of a broader effort to address scalping concerns at official events.
The reported policy does not include details on enforcement mechanisms, penalties for violations, or exceptions for personal trades. No official statement from TPCi has confirmed the ban, leaving its scope and implementation unverified.
This information comes from PokeBeach, which reports on Pokemon trading card game updates. The report is attributed to PokeBeach, noting that it has not been confirmed by an official statement from The Pokemon Company.
