Today, high-quality leak images of MEGA Dream ex began spreading overseas, and as a result, a large number of international buyers suddenly entered the Japanese market.
Because of this, prices have already moved from around ¥12,000 → ¥12,600+ in the last 24 hours. (See today’s price chart below.)
This kind of movement happens before every major release, but this time the reaction is unusually fast due to the clear, high-quality leak images.

■ Current Situation
I have already received over 120 BOX reservations, and I will have a large number of boxes available on release day.
Shipping options:
International: FedEx (fastest, tracked)
Domestic Japan: Japan Post (Yu-Pack, etc.)
I also accept reservations for:
Loose packs
Single cards (including SAR)
Since “day-one pricing” moves extremely quickly, I will process orders in the order I receive messages.
We are based in Fukuoka, Japan, and specialize in selling Japanese Pokémon and One Piece cards to collectors and investors around the world. We don’t sell domestically in Japan — our focus is entirely on international buyers who love authentic Japanese cards.
Why We Don’t Have an Online Store
Until July 2025, we sold on eBay shipping Pokémon cards and sealed boxes daily to customers all over the world. At one point, we were even recognized by FedEx Japan as one of the highest-volume shippers in our region.
But eBay’s high fees and the U.S. De Minimis rule (which affects import taxes) made it difficult to keep prices fair for our customers. So we decided to leave eBay and focus on direct sales — no platform fees, no inflated prices, and full transparency.
We considered opening a Shopify store, but Pokémon cards are not something people want to buy like items from a vending machine. Collectors and investors want to see card conditions, ask questions, and confirm details before buying. That’s why we chose a more personal approach fewer sales, but more trust.
Why Direct Transactions Work Better
By selling directly, we can cut unnecessary costs and offer prices lower than eBay. It also allows us to communicate with each buyer, ensuring they know exactly what they’re getting.
We believe that selling cards isn’t just about listings it’s about building trust. Prices change daily, and one small pricing mistake online can lead to chaos someone always tries to take advantage of it! So instead of chasing prices, we focus on conversations — helping buyers understand the market and choose safely.
Why We’re in Fukuoka
I used to live in Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shenzhen, but after COVID-19, I realized that big cities once full of opportunity became too dense and risky. That’s why I moved with my family to Fukuoka, surrounded by nature, culture, and calm. It turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life not only for family, but also for my business.
Fukuoka is full of young families and children who often sell or trade cards, so buying directly from locals gives us a huge advantage in pricing and supply. We also hold a licensed trading permit, allowing us to purchase cards legally from individuals in Japan.

How to Reach Us
Our main communication channel is Instagram (@pokeshopjp). We use it to showcase unique or rare items not everything, since there are over 20,000 different cards in circulation! We also share updates through Stories, where most buyers contact us via DM or WhatsApp. You can also reach us directly through this blog.
For Visitors Traveling to Japan
Many travelers message us saying,
“I’m coming to Japan where can I buy Pokémon cards?”
The truth is: physical stores often charge “tourist prices.” Online is almost always cheaper and safer. That’s why we created a special service for travelers if you order in advance, we can deliver cards directly to your hotel in Japan. This way, you can enjoy your trip while still receiving your favorite cards safely. Some customers even choose to meet us in person to receive their cards which is always a pleasure!
Our Promise
Our goal isn’t just to sell — it’s to build long-term trust. If you message us, you’ll receive a direct reply from us, not from AI. We value real communication, and while time zones may cause slight delays, you’ll always get a genuine human response.
We’re excited to meet new collectors and investors from around the world. Even if you just want to say hello we’d love to hear from you.
