After a brief pilot phase, EB Games has officially launched its Single TCG buying program, now available in more than 20 Australian stores that accept trading card exchanges.
EB has released a concise tutorial video that walks customers through the process, while the participating outlets are equipped with a sleek card reader to appraise items and a stacker to efficiently count common cards.
Shoppers can receive up to 80% of a card’s value in store credit, or choose cash at a 15% discount, with valuations anchored to current TCGPlayer market rates. Additional information is available on the EB website.
The original announcement confirms that EB Games is currently trialing trading card exchanges for Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, and One Piece, with plans to roll the service out nationwide.
Players can now trade pristine or near‑pristine trading cards, which are scanned by a dedicated TCG scanner to reveal the current purchase price. The trader receives a percentage of the market value as listed on TCGPlayer.com, ensuring fair compensation based on real‑time demand.
Each transaction permits a maximum of 50 cards; if you have more, you’ll need to re‑enter the queue to continue trading.
EB Games supplies two visual guides that outline the accepted card conditions and quantity limits, which are displayed below for easy reference.
Purchasing items through the links on our site may earn us a commission, but this comes at no additional cost to you.
