About Gira Ninja
The collector behind the cards.
The origin
It all started with ripping packs
Like a lot of you, I started as a kid opening up cards when the uncles would bring packs to the family parties. The cards sat in my desk for over a decade until curiosity pulled at me to start opening packs again. I didn't have money so I started an Instagram page and traded with people in the community, slowly building my collection since 2018. I've been collecting, grading, and chasing hits ever since.
The name
Why "Gira Ninja"?
Giratina and Greninja — my favorite two Pokemon with amazing shiny forms, mashed into one name. One's a banished god that got me hooked on the cool corners of the lore; the other's my main character in smash bros. Put them together and you get Gira_Ninja.
Show life
From the shows to the storefront
What began as posting cards on Instagram in 2018 turned into a community of collectors from trading, selling, and this store grew straight out of those DMs. Now I share cool pickups and interactions on IG and YouTube, set up at card shows, and list the best of what I trade and buy right here. Every card is sleeved, checked, and shipped by me — the same way I'd want mine handled.
