eBay does always win but what about those of us who aren't 18?
We can't buy/bid/offer so we need alternatives.

People under 18 probably shouldn't be buying online without a parent involved anyways (and how are you paying? Credit cards and banks require you be 18 to get an account, same goes for Paypal), and those in the 16 - 17 range should be mature enough to talk to a parent about having the parent sign up for eBay and using it (maybe with limits/their supervision) and those younger need the parent to work it anyways.

or theres professor-oak.com they use dynamic pricing so if you need a random/rarely used tech then it might be the 1 for you, also doesn't seem to charge delivery to the uk

For the sake of playing Devil's advocate, my issue with their dynamic pricing is that they seem to price everything WAY above the normal, and it comes down within a decent range only after weeks if not months of not selling a copy. I wouldn't hold my breath on the price drops.

it does seem that the pirces don't drop rapidly but if they did then they'd never have any stock, plus the inventory isn't to bad
 
M!ster GrassDark, let's chill on the spammy posts about the links posted (such as your post where you state you reported vilebaseball, though he was, in my opinion, in the right) and just stick to trying to help the original poster with the websites you're posting, okay? :D

I agree with vilebaseball - eBay is by far the best option, but if you're not old enough to use it, then try one of the other sites listed by the other posters, or get your parents to make and run an account on ebay and buy your cards through there.

What? I don't know where you've been but here in the UK to aquire a debit card you have to be atleast eleven years old and these can be used online - the banks encourage it! And also, on a personal note, my parents would never buy me pokemon cards - waste of money to them.

Mmm, interesting. And you don't need a parents permission/with you to get a debit card?

Well then, you're a unique case. If you're looking to go around your parents back, maybe your way is best.

Another good way to do things OP, check out the Trading Corner!

I didn't say that as you do initially, but once they have signed the form thats it! They have no control over you're spending or your accounts - complete freedom :D.

Nonetheless, you need PARENT INVOLVEMENT to be able to make any kind of online purchase. I'm guessing they could revoke said account if they found out, so it's best to not curve around them. Then again, I don't care enough about your situation to bother continuing about it. I've answered the question, so I'm done.
 
Thanks Vilebaseball, appreciate the help in checking ebay sellers for me. I will take you up on that soon.

In regards to the bragging post ; never seen something so ridiculous in my life....so you just get off on taunting people? "I know this amazing thing....oh oh but you can't have it."

Thanks to everyone else though. :)

Sure thing. Just post here or send me a PM (I prefer the former, if you're able to within the limits of the rules) and I'll happily check em out.

Who asked for your regards or involvement on that issue? It was clearly solved until you opened it up again which again puts this thread off-track again. I've never seen something so ridiculous in my life... jealousy on a new level - all I did was show off a bit (who doesn't, human nature) and people like you have to bang on about, when at the end of my post I clearly gave what the thread creator was asking for.
 
Okay, this thread has served its purpose. ReZourceman has stated he'll contact vilebaseball in a PM about the sellers soon, and he thanked everyone else for their support.

To stop more spam...
