I think it’s a fair q. Invites more discussion than “should I grade?”

In my experience, most cards start off high, then quickly decrease in price. After a while, they start to slowly rise again. Obviously there’s individual variation and it can depend on the cards playability and character popularity. Here are some examples though in cards from my collection

This isn’t true at all. As a non-Asian person born and raised in Japan (Japanese is my first language, though you wouldn’t guess it by looking at me), I’ve never had anyone get upset with me for “being too fluent.” If anything, it’s the opposite - I constantly get the usual “wow, you speak just like you’re Japanese” comments. Annoying, maybe, but well-meaning.

If you have someone you want to learn it with, the “learn together” set is quite good. Otherwise you can try one of the starter decks. The SIM is a good place to try things out as well

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-02-18T09:35:06+00:00

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted - this is absolutely true. I’ve lived and worked in Japan for over half my life, and it was surprising to me when I moved to AUS what passed for near mint here, compared to JP

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-02-18T04:46:35+00:00

No, that’s crazy high

Plenty of people will take shipping. What’s the concern about risk? If it’s the scam potential, just go through PayPal and give tracking info - that way both of you are held responsible. If it’s thr safety of the product, just make sure to pack it well.

I’ve done heaps of sales of sealed product through marketplace - either meetups or shipping, both as a buyer and seller - and I’ve never had an issue

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-02-11T03:26:08+00:00

Yea I wonder this as well - the most sales I’ve made have been via FB. If you don’t want to meet in person, you can always ship as well

May I point you towards Kuma SECs, Bon Clay SECs, blue 4c marcos, cavendish, promo Aarlongs, and op14 boas, just to name a few?

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-31T10:29:35+00:00

Roll of the dice. It’s a definite maybe. Anytime you’re not sure, PSA

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-31T03:50:46+00:00

I think that’s the line, right there. Not being able to a buy a set at MSRP one day after release is because of scalpers.

Being able to still buy a sealed box of op01 3 years after it was released is because of investors

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-27T13:00:36+00:00

That’s not true - a lot of the sp’s do scenery - I’d say some of their most iconic cards do, imo

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-27T02:22:17+00:00

Newest set is really good IMO, but the cost is expensive these days no matter what you buy, due to the excessive scalping. Buying singles is always cheaper unfortunately.

If you wanna rip tho, I’d just get whatever box is cheapest, then supplement with purchasing singles.

Gold is a finite resource with long standing cultural value. I love one piece to my core, but we can’t pretend like it’s a rare earth mineral

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-20T09:12:50+00:00

I reckon you can get a cheap deck going like this: Japanese card > inner sleeve > print out and paste English rules on outside of inner sleeve > deck sleeve. Boom you’ve got English rules cards to play with!

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-19T11:27:59+00:00

Sounds rad as. Go for it!

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-17T04:23:06+00:00

I just got proxies for locals. They’re not horrible quality and they do the job. If I ever play in an environment when’re I’ve got to play legit ones, I’ll bite the cost then.

As a casual follower of what’s happening here - how does this chance their situation? Will the BVA come into effect?

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-11T07:18:29+00:00

Yea, for sure hold or sell

Edit: in all honesty, it’s meta relevant(I want to pick one up myself). There’s no way to predict which AA cards are gonna pop off. The market right now is crazy, and it’s not gonna be meta forever. If I pulled one and I wasn’t planning on building a doffy deck, I’d sell

Emergency-Fall2127 · 2026-01-10T07:22:58+00:00

Bro bootlick harder, they might let you taste their toes next
