The figures are listed prices, not sold prices: each was read from the live item page for that Charizard ex copy on 2026-09-20, with USD as the item page’s own checkout conversion. Everything shown is the Japanese-language print of the Pokémon TCG[5]. Condition is the seller’s Mercari / Yahoo! Flea Market condition field, translated; Suruga-ya is shop stock with no condition field. Seller titles are Japanese, and the tiles further down open each listing. Mercari allows overseas purchases only through partner proxy services[3].
Yahoo! Flea Market has the slab floor at ¥70,000, ¥71,000 and ¥71,210; Mercari follows at ¥71,270, then a Hokkaido card shop at ¥84,000. Four sellers inside ¥1,270 across forty-eight slabs — the tightest floor of any card at this price in the series. PSA 9s are ¥34,540 and ¥34,740 from the same seller, both with authentication. Raw copies: ¥21,999 and ¥24,444 with slight-wear notes, ¥23,000 with a damage note — all three Mercari with authentication available. Twenty raws in stock.

Scope: Japanese Charizard ex 134/108 (Ruler of the Black Flame). The English-language print of this illustration has a different collector number and set name and is priced in a separate market, so the figures here do not transfer[5]. Promo copies and full-art variants from other sets are likewise different cards — the number on the PSA label is what to match.
Charizard ex PSA 10 value: is the slab worth 3.18× a raw copy?
A 3.2× multiple, a ¥48,001 gap, and a PSA 9 at 49%: the market pays ¥35,460 for the gem-mint label over a 9, and every cheap raw is worn. A self-submission is not a live option on today’s raws — none is clean enough to meet PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6]. That leaves two honest choices: the ¥70,000 slab for the 10, or the ¥34,540 PSA 9 for a certified copy at half the price.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥70,000 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥21,999 | Cheapest way to own the artwork; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy with Mercari authentication | ¥23,699 | ¥21,999 + ¥1,700 authentication fee[1]; the card is checked for authenticity before it ships, but it is still ungraded. |
Buy the ¥70,000 slab with unboxing photos and DHL. The ¥34,540 PSA 9 with Mercari authentication[1] (¥36,240 all-in) is the value buy on this card. Raw only for artwork — the ¥21,999 copy with authentication is ¥23,699 all-in and still worn.
Buying a Charizard ex SAR 134/108 from Japan: step by step
A slab at this price earns the photo service, DHL, and a check of the cert number before the second payment. Here is the sequence.
- Step 1 — Read the seller’s title and photos. Japanese titles carry the grade (PSA10), the number (134/108) and often the set code; the photos show the cert number on the label.
- Step 2 — Add to cart on OneMall. No Japanese phone number or address needed — the proxy is the buyer of record on Mercari, and Mercari’s own help pages describe this partner-purchase route[3].
- Step 3 — Choose extras. Mercari authentication (+¥1,700)[1][2] on eligible raw cards, or OneMall’s unboxing photos for a slab.
- Step 4 — First payment. Item price plus a service fee that starts at ¥200 per order.
- Step 5 — Second payment and delivery. Once the card is in the warehouse you pick the carrier — ECMS or DHL to the US — and can hold it up to 90 days to combine with other finds.

Are there clean raw Charizard ex 134/108 copies for sale?
Not among the three cheapest — all carry wear or damage notes. Twenty raws are in stock; clean private copies of this card are rare because they were graded in 2023.
Which set is Charizard ex SAR 134/108 from?
Ruler of the Black Flame (sv3, 黒炎の支配者), the July 2023 expansion; 134/108 is its special-art-rare number above the 108-card base. The Pokémon Card 151 Charizard ex SAR (201/165) is a different card.
Is there a PSA population report for Charizard ex SAR 134/108?
Yes — PSA’s Population Report[6] lists the census for every graded card, including this one, and it is the number to check before you buy for scarcity. It is not reproduced here because it changes constantly. The in-stock picture on 2026-09-20 — 48 PSA 10, 5 PSA 9, 20 raw copies — is the market-side supply figure this page can stand behind.
