Hey guys, I left the Pokemon TCG about 3\4 of the way through the ex series, I've decided to play again and I really need cards for my deck, unfortunately I dont have a credit card or debit card so no online shopping for me =(. I have tried many packs, but I need cards from great encounters as well as legends awakened, which are quite hard to find and even then I get fairly crap cards(Claydoll GE and Uxie LA are a bitch to find without internet...). I live in Toronto,ON Canada, so if anyone could give me the name of a card vendor that sells them individually it would be great.

Also, any online store that allows mail in checks\cash would be appreciated. Thx.

EDIT: A vendor IN Toronto would be most preferable =).
 
If you have plans to go to Worlds, there's going to be some vendors there.

You could also trade at a league or at another tournament.

I can't give you the name of any actual vendors as I don't live in Canada, but you could look up some league locations at hobby stores and you might find single cards there. Or you could just directly search card shops.

Hope this helps and good luck! :D
 
I don't have a credit card myself, but I do have a bank account online which allows me to shop on the internet. Maybe that would work out. Also Claydols and Uxies will be worth squat next year. If you're just coming back, try borrowing them from others instead of getting them for yourself. It's a total waste of money right now.
 
I know a way of getting packs online for free, but not single cards. However if your interested in getting them, I cant post it directly without my post being picked out for advertising, but look down, the answer isnt far away...
 
Thanks for the suggestions so far, but I have a few questions:

1) Where exactly is Worlds... I don't wanna make the trip if I'm going to lose with a bad deck (Unless its with an hour driving from Toronto, in which case, why not =P).
2) I checked eBay for some of the cards I wanted, should I expect the same price from vendors?
 
Cards on ebay can sometimes go for alot lessthan vendors sell for. If your serious about getting a bid on them use www.goofbay.com as it has a free auction sniper that will place your bid automatically just before the end, so as long as you have the highest bid, your pretty much guaranteed the item.

1. San Diego, California USA! But, you have to have an invitation to go there. If you just came back then I really don't think you'll be having an invitation (no offense)
2. A little cheaper, or a little more expensive.
 
Something you might want to look into if you do want to buy stuff from eBay would be to get one of those gift cards (usually $25, $50, or $100) that look and act like credit cards. I know Visa has some at a lot of megamarts (Walmart, K-Mart, etc.), so something like that may allow you to use it for a little while, anyway. \

Of course, there's always the "bribe someone else who does have a card/ebay account to buy it for you" method of doing it too.
