With this new update you can expect to see several new changes to the website. In addition to the usual updates, we have made changes that may impact your shopping experience. Lets talk about it.

Ebay products can now be viewed from the site. Clicking on products from the ebay shop will bring you to the ebay website. Keep in mind that the ebay shop is separate from the main shop so if you have items currently in your shopping basket, you will need to purchase them separately from any ebay goods.

New User Avatars have been added. We can now select classic pikachu, Ninetales, Poliwhirl, Golem, Snorlax, Mewtwo, Espeon, Tyranitar, Lugia, Lucario, Garbodor, Greninja, Aegislash, Steenee, and Palafin amongst 41 other pokemon options. Selecting a pokemon will change your avatar selection icon on the top and will appear anytime you make a comment on a blog entry or choose to rate a product. Rating products on the store helps with visibility so it is always appreciated.

Avatars will continue to be regularly added to the site and occasionally appear as member icon rewards. Due to a recent change in the numbering system, your pokemon avatar may have changed. Simply change it on your “My Account” page  to resolve the issue.

We are discontinuing the Pokemon Trading Online Codes. We are thankful to everyone who enjoyed and bought products from the online shop.

Have you been enjoying your time on the site? Let me know what you think and what you’d like to see in the future.

if you have been around TCA Gaming for a while, you are probably aware of the membership discount system. For those who aren’t, by becoming a member of TCA Gaming on Youtube you will gain access to various awards including loyalty badges and custom emojis. To update your membership, you can join by going to the TCA Gaming’s Youtube Channel and clicking JOIN.

In addition to the perks listed above, members get specific discounts based on their level. Look for products that have the charmander, charmeleon, and/or charizard icons respectively to see what products apply. By finding the appropriate sales item and you’ll get the discount added to your account immediately

However there is one catch, in order to recognize your membership, you’ll need to add your Youtube Name in the system. You can add/change your username at the bottom of your “My Account Page” (just make sure your display name and email are filled in before you save changes). Once you have made the changes, your My account page should show the appropriate discount.

Updates can take anywhere from three to five business days to update upon initial Youtube Username update, if you have additional questions or concerns, you contact me at stephan@stephanchurch.com.

Hello all, welcome to the new TCA Gaming website. For the past year, I’ve been working with Rusty to develop a new store front that can provide the best shopping experience for you all. Here I just wanted to go over a few of the new features to help acquaint you to the new storefront.

1. Slide Updates. As you have probably noticed, there will be slides to showcase any new products, events or general news.

2. User avatars. At the header you are likely to notice the Pikachu next to the ‘Welcome Back’ notice. Once you have logged in, you can change your user icon at “My Page.” This will change the Pokemon that greets you when you come onto TCA Gaming as well as act as your avatar when you post or leave product reviews. There are currently 23 Pokemon avatars available with more coming in the future.

3. Discount Levels. You can now see your discount level on your “My Page.” This will set ensure you have an automatic discount when you go to the your cart. If you notice that your discount level isn’t showing the appropriate icon, let Rusty know so he can update it. You can learn more about discounts here. Discounts using the various charvolutions will be displayed with icons like below.

4. The PTCGO store has now been updated to make for faster navigation. The store is still separate from the main store.

5. Each Product now allows for users to rate the product and send a review. You can see these by clicking a product and going to review.

I’ll be working with Rusty to continue to build the website going forward. If you have any questions or thoughts, feel free to post below.
