Palworld TCG Prices Skyrocket as eBay Scalpers Profit Off of Card Game Launch
The Palworld TCG has officially launched, and so too has a wave of scalpers looking to make a quick buck on developer Pocketpair's new collectible cards.
The Palworld Trading Card Game (TCG) officially launched on July 30, 2026, in partnership with Bushiroad. However, the sudden demand for the cards has led to a surge in scalpers using eBay to capitalize on this new opportunity. Retailer Lumius was selling a booster box case, containing 12 booster boxes with 12 booster packs each, for $499.99, but these cases are now going for around $1,800 on eBay.
The rarest card, the Cattiva Gold Soul Card, was sold for a staggering $3,997.98 just three days before the official launch. A Jormuntide Ignis card was purchased for $1,300 even earlier on July 24. Despite the high prices, they have slightly decreased in recent days, with Gold Cattiva Pals now selling for around $1,000 each. The game has been a roaring success, with 3.5 million packs ordered weeks before launch.
The Dawn of Palpagos set features over 50 Pals with original illustrations, and a second booster set, Legends Awaken, is set to release in October.
