does anyone know if there is a store that still sells the original booster packs from generation 1?

Man, I seriously doubt that. Your best bet is to check online stores.

thats what i figured but i guess i was hoping for some outside chance

A great place is the fair grounds in Raleigh

Well, I heavily doubt that, but you can always check online.

Check for specialty comic book or card stores in your area and try there. The odds are really against you though.

I've got cards I could sell to you. But no I highly doubt you're gonna find any original packs anymore.

There's definitely some on ebay, but I don't know if you want to go try that. >_> Not exactly the most trustworthy place, but you never know.
They're pretty much gone from all the big retailers. It's a shame; I really liked the original cards, too. xD

Ebay's a great place. You could probably find a ton of booster packs for really cheap. I buy from there all the time, and never had any kind of problem.

search on ebay or go to japan and get them specially made

Moving this to Pokemon TCG.

Remember, don't discussing selling cards between members on the site. Thank you.

Hmm, there was a place at this train convention I went to that sold quite a lot. One was even a first edition!

(y'all are gonna hate me...)

My local Wal Mart actually has this pack of Pokemon cards- it comes with 20 and one of the twenty is always a rare. The cards are all generation one. And, I used to buy them all the time to build my collection. Okay, so it's not the booster packs... but, it's still generation one and still the original Pokemon cards that I remember playing with when I was 10. Right?

Anyway, the booster packs can only be found online, through auctions, at fairs... things like that.

And, the fairgrounds in Raleigh sell them??? I didn't know this... WHY?

There this really cool site you can buy them try professor-oak.com it depends on what cards your looking for but i doubt u can get them at a store

Comic Book stores are actually pretty reliable.. or market stores. eBay is a great option too, so just try those two.

The local card shop (Fort St John, BC Canada) has 15+ Base Set packs for sale, going for $6 a piece. I've bought a few so far, not really into them because there not 1st Edition. It doesn't seem like anyone else is buying them either.
In the first pack I bought, there was a Blastoise. It was a nice surprise.:classic:

Well, there is a store near me and they had the Misty Theme Deck, so try little shops that you wouldn't think would have cards.
