Bring Your Old Nostalgic Cards to 2HG.nl – Have Your Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh! and Other TCG Treasures Checked

Do you still have a box of old trading cards somewhere in the attic? Pokémon cards from your childhood, Yu-Gi-Oh! decks you used to duel with, or maybe Magic: The Gathering cards that haven’t seen daylight in years?
Then this is the perfect moment to have them checked by the specialists at 2HG.nl.

Every day, we help customers who want their old trading cards evaluated, sold, or simply want to know what they’re worth today. Many cards turn out to be more valuable than expected—especially original cards from the late ’90s and early 2000s.

Why Have Your Cards Checked at 2HG.nl?

At 2HG.nl, you can easily and without obligation have your cards assessed. In our store in Spijkenisse, we evaluate the condition, value, and collector interest of your cards.
Why is this especially interesting for Pokémon cards?

• Old cards are becoming increasingly rare

• The value of vintage cards continues to rise

• Condition can make a difference of hundreds of euros

• We can quickly see if a card is worth selling or grading

And the best part: you just have to walk in. No hassle with photos, no uncertainty about the condition—we assess everything directly and honestly in the store.

A Trip Back to 1996 – When Pokémon First Arrived in the Netherlands

Who still remembers it?
It’s 1996/1997, and Pokémon is just starting to appear in the Netherlands. Not through TikTok or YouTube, but through a short TV clip, a card from a friend, or those first booster packs you bought at the toy store.

We—back then still teenagers—stood on the schoolyard with a backpack full of cards, lunchbox half open, binders packed with shiny Charizards and Blastoises. It wasn’t about value; it was about pride, winning, and trading.

Slap-games, throwing cards against the wall, and “whoever lands closest wins”

The schoolyard was our battlefield.

• We threw cards against the wall

• Played slap games to win a holo

• Traded 10 cards for one shiny, always negotiating

• And sometimes… a card disappeared in the wind or landed in a puddle, but that was part of the fun

Pokémon wasn’t an investment—it was an adventure.
And that’s exactly what makes those attic cards so special now. They’re not just valuable—they’re a piece of your childhood, memories, and pure nostalgia.

Your Old Treasures Might Still Be in the Attic…

Many people don’t realize how much value can be hidden in an old shoebox:

• Base Set cards (1999/2000)

• Team Rocket, Jungle, Fossil

• First-generation Yu-Gi-Oh! cards

• 90’s Magic cards

• Promo cards from magazines, events, or tournaments

Every day at 2HG.nl, we see customers surprised by the value of their childhood collections. Sometimes an old card turns out to be worth hundreds of euros—especially when it’s still in good condition.
