On this card a PSA 9 costs clearly less than a PSA 10: ¥2,700 against ¥4,450 in the listings re-checked on 2026-11-03.

Prices were read from each Cynthia’s Spiritomb item page on 2026-11-03 — the seller’s listed price, with USD as the checkout conversion shown on the same page. Every row is a Japanese-language print of the Pokémon TCG[5]; condition notes are the seller’s Mercari / Yahoo! Flea Market condition field, translated. Seller titles are Japanese, and the tiles further down open each listing directly. Mercari permits purchases from overseas through partner proxy services[3].
The PSA 10 floor is ¥4,450 on Yahoo! Flea Market (seller condition “Unused”), followed by a Mercari slab at ¥4,500 (“No obvious damage or stains”) and a Yahoo! Flea Market slab at ¥4,800 (“Almost unused”). The PSA 9 is where this card gets interesting: ¥2,700 on Mercari, seller condition “Nearly unused” — 61% of the cheapest 10, a ¥1,750 gap. Raw copies are ¥300 (pre-owned) and ¥444 (unused), both on Mercari — pack-pull money.

All of the above is the Japanese-language Cynthia’s Spiritomb — number 208/193 in MEGA Dream ex high-class pack. The English-language print of the same illustration carries a different collector number and set name, trades in a separate market, and is not covered by these prices[5]. Promo versions and full-art variants from other sets are different cards again: match the number on the slab label before you compare a price.
PSA 10 vs raw Cynthia’s Spiritomb: what a 14.83× premium buys
A 14.83× multiple, or a ¥4,150 gap, separates the cheapest PSA 10 (¥4,450) from the cheapest raw copy (¥300) on 2026-11-03; on a ¥300 card most of that gap is the cost and risk of grading. What stands out is that the 9 has a price here. At ¥2,700 a PSA 9 Spiritomb gives you a sealed, cert-numbered card for ¥1,750 less than gem mint. PSA’s grading scale[6] puts a 9 at mint with a minor flaw — for a binder card of a Cynthia-themed art rare, that is a distinction most owners will never notice. If you are building a graded MEGA Dream ex set on a budget, the PSA 9 on this card is where the saving is.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥4,450 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥300 | Cheapest way to own the artwork; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy a raw copy that offers Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) | raw price + ¥1,700 | Authentication[1] is seller-enabled on Mercari listings only; Mercari official issues its conclusion before the card ships (OneMall does not guarantee authenticity), but it is still ungraded. Check the listing before you add it. |
Three sensible routes: ¥4,450 for the 10 if you want the top grade, ¥2,700 for the 9 if you want a slab without paying for perfection, or ¥300 raw — ¥2,000 with Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)[1] — if the artwork is the point. The ¥4,800 PSA 10 costs ¥350 more than the ¥4,450 floor for the same grade.
Getting a Cynthia’s Spiritomb AR 208/193 shipped from Japan
Whichever grade you pick, the route out of Japan is the same. Step by step:
- Step 1 — Read the seller’s title and photos. Japanese titles carry the grade (PSA10), the number (208/193) 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 official authentication (+¥1,700) (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)[1][2] on eligible raw cards, or OneMall’s unboxing photos for a slab.
- Step 4 — First payment. Item price plus a service fee of ¥300 per item on most marketplaces (from ¥200 per item on Yahoo Auctions and LinkBuy).
- Step 5 — Second payment and delivery. Once the card is in the warehouse you pick the carrier — ECMS, DHL or Japan Post EMS (DDP) to the US — and can store it free for 90 days after arrival (30 days after consolidation) to combine with other finds.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a PSA 10 Cynthia’s Spiritomb AR cost?
In-stock listings checked on 2026-11-03 run ¥4,450 to ¥4,800 (US$30.71–33.12) for a PSA 10; the ¥4,450 copy is on Yahoo! Flea Market, seller condition “Unused”.
Is the PSA 9 a good alternative?
Yes on this card. At ¥2,700 the PSA 9 is 61% of the cheapest PSA 10 (¥4,450), a ¥1,750 discount in the listings checked on 2026-11-03.
What set is 208/193 from?
The MEGA Dream ex high-class pack (M2a); the 208/193 number places it in the set’s art-rare secret range above the 193-card base.
Does a raw copy come with any guarantee?
Only what the seller states. Mercari official authentication (+¥1,700, buyer pays) (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) returns Mercari’s conclusion before it ships[1]; it does not grade condition.
What is the PSA 10 population for Cynthia’s Spiritomb 208/193?
This page does not quote a population count. PSA publishes the census in its Population Report[6], and the number moves with every submission batch, so a figure copied here would be stale within weeks. What the market shows instead is live supply: 27 PSA 10 slabs, 2 PSA 9 slabs and 29 raw copies of Cynthia’s Spiritomb 208/193 in stock on 2026-09-29 — the ratio of slabs to raws is the practical read on how heavily the card has been graded.
