To be honest im really afraid to ask this question here.

I would like to know what would happen if i bought codes of sites that sell codes in bulk.

will i be banned?

im only being precautious so i can stop my self from falling into trouble.

    There’s nothing to worry about, just buy from the big stores and you’ll be fine. Everyone buys code cards, unless they just have the money to open up a couple cases of boosters every set.

    There are a couple big internet stores I buy from every expansion and nothing happens. I don't think Pokemon Company likes it but what can they do really. Just buy from a trusted website and you should be fine. It's the cheapest way to get into PTCGL.

    Thinking you'll be banned for buying codes is like thinking people get banned in tournaments for buying singles instead of pulling the cards or trading for them. You are completely same; Nothing will happen to your account.

    And like everyone said, it's better to buy your codes from a trusted website.

    You shouldn't have any issues with large, trusted websites. I've used them plenty in the past and I've never had an issue. Also, you can't get banned for buying codes.

    I've redeemed 1100+ codes back on ptcgo once and it doesn't matter. Playing the game never rewarded ya much so it was a necessity. Literally spent hundreds of dollars on codes for my account.
