ℹ️ Important: Poké-Trade is an online marketplace and does not buy, sell, inspect, authenticate, grade, store, ship, or take possession of any traded items. All items are shipped directly between users. Trade Protection is an optional platform benefit, not insurance. Benefits are discretionary, subject to review, and limited to applicable membership maximums. For collection insurance, we recommend consulting a licensed insurance professional.
