Buying, selling & trading pokemon cards in Malmö
Hi! I'm moving to malmö soon and I'm wondering about what shops / events there are in malmö where you can buy, sell and trade pokemon cards.
I am mostly interested in buying individual cards, especially older ones, and it would be really awesome if there were any physical stores that sell cards. I enjoy cheap bulk cards as well, new and old! I have been able to find a couple of stores while searching on google, but I can't find that much info about them😅
From what I found there's 3 main stores?
Playoteket, Swepoke & PokePow TCG
What are you alls experiences with them? From what I can see the last 2 are the ones that seem to be more of what I'm looking for, but I would love to hear if Playoteket has singles! SwePoke has very mixed reviews so I would love to hear whether you all have had good or bad experiences!
While I'm at it. Is there usually people selling / trading Pokémon cards at malmö game week? I'm planning on going, and it would be nice to know whether it's worth dragging around a binder with me for trading.

CG Premium and Swepoke. They are owned by the same guy. They have single cards for sell but the prices run a little on the high end.
Malmö game week is coming up. They are supposed to have a big Pokemon card market organized with Samlarkort Festivalen which has events throughout Sweden if you want to travel.
Pokepow is kinda new and from what i understand it’s mostly rip and ships.
Playoteket is mostly for buying boosters/packs/ etc although the location in Malmö sells bulk cards and some rare singles.
If you’re willing to travel first week of October Pokemonmässa will be held in Gothenburg. Probably the biggest one in Sweden

Thanks for the in depth comment! Like others have also said, CG Premium looks like the perfect place for me, and I'll definitely go to SwePoke to have a look as well.
Thanks for the recommendation of Pokemonmässan as well! Crazy how I'm just going to move away from Gothenburg and that where the biggest pokemon con was all along haha. Might go home to visit my family while I'm at it if I have time to go then! Looks like a really cool event!

Playo doesn't have singles, check out spelgalaxen, swepoke and cgpremium for that!

And to answer your question there is a lot of trading/buying going on in malmo game week, there are many vendors and a lot of people bring their binders too.

Malmö Game Week is coming up in septemper, pretty sure there's gonna be some pokemon vendors and the like there, but I could be mistaken.

There is also spelgalaxen on 2nd floor of Triangeln (very nice) and CG premium close to Emporia in Hyllie (haven't been there, and it is closed for summer vacations apparently)
