Iono PSA 10 price today (SAR 096/071): 41 gem mint slabs listed in Japan

Forty-one PSA 10 slabs, seven PSA 9s and twenty-two raw copies were in stock this morning. The five cheapest slabs, two 9s and three raws are in the table.

The figures are listed prices, not sold prices: each was read from the live item page for that Iono 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].

The slab ladder — ¥68,500, ¥69,500, ¥70,000, ¥71,000, ¥78,000 — is entirely Yahoo! Flea Market, all described as unused or without obvious damage; one seller notes the card came from a prize draw. Mercari’s cheapest PSA 10 did not make the five. PSA 9s are ¥35,000 nearly unused with authentication, and ¥45,555 with a slight-wear note. Raw copies are ¥29,980 with slight wear, ¥31,100 unused with authentication — marked as a final price cut — and Suruga-ya’s shop copy at ¥46,800.

Scope: Japanese Iono 096/071 (Clay Burst). 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.

PSA 10 vs raw Iono: what a 2.28× premium buys

A 2.3× multiple against the worn raw, 1.5× against Suruga-ya’s clean copy, and a PSA 9 at 51% of the 10: on this card the market pays ¥33,500 for the gem-mint label over a 9 and treats a 9 as roughly a clean raw with a certificate. That makes a self-submission on the ¥31,100 unused raw a real bet — a 9 returns about what you paid, a 10 gains ¥37,400. PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard^[6] on this white-bordered trainer card is hard to hit; forty-one slabs in stock say it happens, seven 9s say it often does not.

Buy the ¥68,500 slab with unboxing photos and the fast carrier. The ¥35,000 PSA 9 is a sound sealed alternative at half the price. The ¥31,100 unused raw with Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)^[1] (¥32,800 all-in) is the submission candidate for anyone who wants the bet.

How to order Iono SAR 096/071 from a Japanese seller

A slab at this price earns the photo service and DHL. Here is the sequence.

1. Step 1 — Decide slab or raw. The cost table above puts the gap at ¥38,520 between the cheapest raw copy and the cheapest PSA 10 today; decide which side of that line you are on before you browse.
2. Step 2 — Open the OneMall listing. The tiles below are live Japanese listings; the price you see is the listed price in yen with the USD conversion applied at checkout.
3. Step 3 — Tick Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) on raw cards. It costs ¥1,700 per card and the buyer pays it^[1][2]; a card that fails is returned to the seller and you are refunded.
4. Step 4 — Pay, then let it land in Tokyo. Product price and service fee first; shipping is billed separately after the warehouse weighs the parcel.
5. Step 5 — Consolidate. Up to six orders merge for free and items are stored free for 90 days after arrival (30 days after consolidation) after arrival (30 days after consolidation), which is how collectors turn five Mercari sellers into one DHL box.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a PSA 10 Iono SAR 096/071?

In-stock Japanese listings on 2026-09-29 price it at ¥68,500 to ¥78,000 (about US$473–538 before shipping); all five cheapest are Yahoo! Flea Market slabs.

Should I buy the PSA 9 Iono rather than a PSA 10?

At ¥35,000 the PSA 9 is 51% of the cheapest PSA 10 — a sealed, cert-numbered Iono for half the money.

How does 096/071 differ from Iono 350/190?

096/071 is the Clay Burst (sv2d) original; 350/190 is the Shiny Treasure ex (sv4a) reprint. Today the Clay Burst PSA 10 floor is ¥68,500 against ¥24,800 for the Shiny Treasure version.

Is it worth grading a raw Iono SAR myself?

A high-variance bet: a ¥31,100 unused raw becomes roughly a ¥35,000 card as a 9 or a ¥68,500 card as a 10. Seven PSA 9s in stock against forty-one 10s show both outcomes happen.

What is the PSA 10 population for Iono 096/071?

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: 41 PSA 10 slabs, 7 PSA 9 slabs and 22 raw copies of Iono 096/071 in stock on 2026-09-29 — the ratio of slabs to raws is the practical read on how heavily the card has been graded.
