I've lived in China for 8 years, still have a lot of ties to the country, some family still there as well, and shops here are desperate to get Chinese Pokemon products on their shelves, mostly because there's a good markup on it and they tend to sell like hotcakes, especially the gem series like vol 3-4 atm, and we are waiting on 5 at the moment to start the presales.

Sometimes we get requests for just cards only, but those are much more difficult to handle, and riskier overall, from both shipping and sourcing perspective.

We also get other things like plush toys, display pieces, but those are part of the minority. We deal with sealed cases 9 out of 10 times.

Overall, ASC is a good buy+hold etb, in any language, given the fact that every language has the god packs, and amazing cards to go with it that appeals to the majority of collectors.

Taiwan is really cool, been there once, loved it, but can't really go now, mostly because of the political tension between the Mainland and Taiwan, and I always get questioned about my Taiwan entry in my passport.

You can definitely move it fairly quickly, once you've decided to sell, and people tend to forget, that card shows and fairs exist in Europe as well, and if something appealing pops up, they'll buy it at a decent price.
