To see what your PTCGO stuff is worth, look on the PTCGO forums in the trading section. For example, Top Cut Trading inc

Pack codes are worth about 15-30 cents while other codes are worth around a dollar or two.

>Never post them as text, even if they're missing a letter/number
>Post them as an image with the QR code covered
