About PNW Trading Card Co.

Modern grails, vintage vibes, and blue-chip cardboard from the Pacific Northwest.

  • Our Story

    PNW Trading Card Co. started the way a lot of great collections do — with a kid who never stopped loving sports, TCGs, and cardboard.

    Over the years, that love turned into a serious hobby. I went from ripping packs and building personal collections to studying comps, pop reports, grading standards, and long-term upside. Eventually, it became clear this could be more than a hobby — it could be a real business built by a collector, for collectors.

    PNW Trading Card Co. was created to do things the right way: honest condition notes, curated inventory, fair pricing, and a focus on building long-term relationships — not just quick flips. The big dream? To grow this online shop into a full storefront in the Pacific Northwest within the next couple of years.

Meet the Collector Behind the Brand

Hi, I’m Lex the collector behind PNW Trading Card Co.

Like a lot of people in this hobby, I grew up watching games, playing video games, trading cards with friends, and dreaming about pulling something huge out of a pack. That feeling never really went away.

Today, I’m channeling that same energy into building a business that treats collectors the way I want to be treated: with transparency, respect, and a shared love for the hobby. I’m always hunting for unique pieces, low-numbered parallels, clean copies for grading, and fun one-offs you don’t see every day.

Whether you’re chasing your next grail or just getting back into collecting after a break, you’re in the right place.
