Wholesale counter programs · Greater Chicagoland

Twenty-four packs to a box. Guaranteed hits throughout.

We build and supply trading card counter programs for independent convenience stores, gas stations and smoke shops. One box, one price, one set of terms across every line we make — serviced every four weeks on our route, or shipped prepaid to your door.

Product lines

Same box, same terms, different cards

Every line runs the same twenty-four-pack counter box at the same price, so there is one number to remember however many programs you carry. What changes is what's inside and what we guarantee.

Retailer terms

One set of terms, every line we make

No consignment, no slotting fee, no contract. You buy the box outright and keep everything above what you paid. A single box is a real order to us.

Distributors and multi-unit operators

Line card pricing, by territory

We supply distributors and multi-unit groups on defined exclusive territories, at case pricing well below our retail list. Territories are granted one per market and carry a monthly volume minimum across all lines.

What we supply

  • Consolidated monthly orders across any mix of lines
  • Pickup at our facility or one-stop delivery
  • The same product and guarantees we sell direct — no stripped-down wholesale version
  • Production logs available on request for any per-box odds claim
  • First look at new lines before they go on the route

What we ask

  • A defined territory, exclusive to you, with no transshipment outside it
  • A monthly minimum to hold the tier price
  • ACH prepayment for the first six months, net terms thereafter subject to credit
  • Packaging and claims left exactly as supplied
  • Territory-of-sale reporting, since some lines carry state restrictions
How we work

A route, not a drop-ship

On the route

We run routes across the greater Chicagoland area on a three-week cycle — the city, the collar counties and northwest Indiana. Someone walks in, counts what's left, restocks to par, takes payment and makes sure the box is still where it sells: on the counter, in reach of the register.

You are not managing a reorder. We are. And if one line is moving faster than another at your store, we adjust what we bring.

Outside the route

Beyond the metro, we ship. Orders are prepaid and go out by ground, $9.99 flat on two boxes or more, free at five — any mix of lines counts toward it. Same product, same terms, same rotation guarantee.

New accounts anywhere start prepaid, which keeps it simple for both of us.

What these products are

Stated plainly, because you're putting it on your counter

Plenty of repackaged card product is sold vaguely. We would rather you know exactly what you are buying and be able to answer a customer's question without guessing. This holds for every line we make.

These are genuine, previously opened trading cards, sorted and repackaged by motilla cards. They are not factory-sealed manufacturer product, and we never present them as such. Every card is authentic; premium cards are individually verified before packing.

motilla cards is an independent company. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or licensed by any card manufacturer, league, team, players' association or intellectual property owner whose cards appear in our products. All trademarks and copyrights belong to their respective owners. Per-line detail is listed with each product above.

Our claims are auditable. Where a line guarantees a card per box, it is inserted by hand and recorded in a production log, so the stated odds are a count rather than an estimate. We will show the log to any account or distributor who asks.

Contact

Talk to a person, not a portal

One box is a real order and a first conversation is a short one. Tell us where the store is and we will tell you whether you are on the route or shipping.
