About Us
Hi, we're The Poke Office
The Poke Office started in 2022 as a YouTube channel, opening packs and sharing the hobby with other collectors. It grew into a small Pokémon shop based in Kamloops, BC, built by collectors, for collectors.
We're a family business. I'm Colin, the face you'll see on our channel and livestreams. My brother-in-law Kevin runs our eBay store, and the two of us go to card shows together. Behind the scenes, Kevin's wife Kayce (my sister), my parents Robert and Ruth, and my wife Amanda all pitch in to keep things running.
Our goal is simple: to be the go-to Pokémon store in Canada, especially for Western Canada. That means fair prices, honest pre-orders and real people answering your emails.
