What is a Buy List?
A Buy List is a list of cards put together by Critical Hit Gaming Lounge that we wish to purchase through payment of cash or store credit. At this time, we are only purchasing cards from this list through remote transactions. See Buying without using buy list section for further information.
Card Conditions
Critical Hit Gaming Lounge only accepts Mint, Near Mint or Lightly Played cards according to the TCG Player card conditions. See video below. Some exemptions may apply on a case by case basis.

Buying cards without using the buy list.
Sellers looking to sell cards not on our buy list must come to the store in person with their cards. Please refer to the information under Buy List as those rules still apply. As a reminder, we do not purchase cards less than $7.00. The condition of the card must be mint, near mint or lightly player. There may be some exceptions to these rules.
