Pokemon Cards
7/5/2021 at 4:39 PM
Thought I'd take a big stab in the dark here, but I'll take a chance on the word of mouth.
With Pokemon cards being all the rage again, I've reminisced about the collection I once had. I always thought I had kept them around in some corner of the house collecting dust, until recently I tried to look for them and could not find them. My parents made me aware that I had once put them in a garage sale as a kid, and are pretty sure I had sold them all to another kid younger than myself for around $20 (a steal I know).
Now this garage sale took place around 15-20 years ago, and the chances of the kid who bought them hanging onto them, reading this, or even still being in Brandon is likely miniscule, I figured I would take a shot and see if anyone who reads this may be that boy, or know who that boy may be. I possibly might be interested in purchasing them back again if they'd let me, but I'd more just like to see what I had more than anything. To relive that nostalgia.
The garage sale took place I believe 15-20 years ago. It was at a house on Wellington Crescent near Waverly Park School. I would've been about 8-13 years old. The collection was in a navy blue binder that was half ripped and had pokemon stickers on it. My collection was lots of older stuff, say pre 2002, I would say. And the cards were all in sleeved pages inside the binder. The boy who bought it I think would've been maybe 5-8 years old at the time, so would likely be 18-25 years old now. He was with his mom when he bought them.
If this is you, or you may know who this is, please feel free to contact me, because I'd love to see it again! And if anyone reading would want to help my cause by sharing this story I would much appreciate that too! Thanks!
