Slabs, Sparkle & Side Quests: Meet the Duo Behind the Cards

We’re Jay & Sarah — partners in life, collecting & cozy chaos.

What started as casual Pokémon card runs quickly turned into weekend card shows, late-night centering debates & a growing collection of GEM MINT dreams.

Jay doesn’t just chase slabs — he makes them. With a designer’s eye and a collector’s heart, he curates and pre-grades each card with precision and care before sending off to PSA.

Sarah brings the soft sparkle: organizing, packaging, photographing, and making sure every order feels like a little moment of joy.

Mint & Meow is our shared side quest — a lovingly-run shop built on nostalgia, great cards, and cat cameos. Whether you’re hunting for a PSA 10 or just getting started with your first binder, we’re so glad you're here.

Why Choose Mint & Meow?

Hand-Checked & Collector-Approved

We inspect every card for condition and centering, because we're collectors too & we know how much corners matter.

Only cards we’d collect ourselves make it into your hands.

Cozy Packaging, Always

Every order is packed with care (and a little flair).

Expect soft touches, secure sleeves, and maybe even a surprise or two.

Small Shop, Big Heart

We’re just two collectors building a dream — not a warehouse.

That means personal service, fast replies, and the kind of warmth bots can’t give you.

Vouched by the Community

Jay’s got the aka vouches! Trusted in the Facebook TCG world for safe trades, quick shipping & collector kindness.

We treat every sale like it’s our reputation — because it is.
