[@RinconDelSaiyaman]

[@Dark_ibex]

Thank you! Have fun on your trip~

[@6ofwrev704]

I love seeing the cards you come across. Great content, my man.

Appreciate it! Glad to hear you like the content.

Hi from Singapore! Master ball cards are so cheap now.

[@Dark_ibex]

A lot of them are and many more are being opened!

[@pokeman6543]

That base set Charizard may be no rarity symbol if not I have the same card for ¥22.000 in B+

[@LanaPurrloin]

What is this set you are collecting? NEO DISCOVERY ?

[@Dark_ibex]

I'm trying to get one of each holo from the early sets (Base-Neo Destiny), probably minus the shinings.... lol

Hey, I’m going to Tokyo and wanting to hunt down a Japanese rockets scyther you can see one at 0:08 for 4000 yen, I was just wondering what you think the average proce should be? ( I know it’s condition dependent) but is ¥4000 for a lightly played card? Also trying to find the vid where you pick yours up ahaha, any help would be appreciated (if you don’t remember, no worries) Thank you!

[@Dark_ibex]

Very cool card! As you said, it is all condition and store dependent. There isn't a set market price. 4,000 for lightly played seems high. I started this binder challenge series with many cards already in the collection. I think Scyther is one I already had, so it isn't in any of the videos.

hi there, where is that shop with all those master ball? Magi?

[@Dark_ibex]

You'll find tons of master balls in every store. Magi is just one place that has them.

[@khamal89]

@@Dark_ibex yeah can see the average is 1500 2000 yen but in your video are for 900 yen! *_*

[@andrewjames4558]

Do you know if any of these card shops have online websites you can purchase from?

[@Dark_ibex]

The bigger the store, the more likely they will have an online shop. Having that said, I'd advise against buying from them online because you are usually buying blind. Better to go with eBay, for example, since you get to see pictures.

[@andrewjames4558]

@@Dark_ibex thanks! I’m trying to find some shops in Japan that are cheaper than eBay, do you know of any that have an online storefront?

[@pokeman6543]

¥82800 for a raw birthday Pikachu 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's PSA 10 price's

[@tainanking]

Psa is def more strict with Japanese cards for vintage. Even for next to perfect cards if a bit off center or barely anything wrong, they give 9’s and even 8’s. Def not worth the gamble to grade raw vintage Japanese. Better off selling them raw.

[@aidos9753]

Losing hope for finding anything reasonably priced in Japan. Prices are cooked everywhere

[@Dark_ibex]

Good deals are out there, but yes, you can find most cards for the same price or even cheaper on eBay.

[@aidos9753]

@@Dark_ibex makes no sense that eBay is cheaper since they take a cut out of their sales, physical stores just getting greedy.

[@Dark_ibex]

@@aidos9753 Stores have to pay rent, salaries, etc. Someone just selling a card they don't want to collect anymore on eBay will be perfectly happy getting less.

I went recently. It was cool going store to store. Looking threw cards. I felt that different stores had dif. prices (but close). Also depending on location of store. Like what part of city
