A note on sourcing: the Mega Latias ex 088/063 prices above are the asking prices on each item page as of 2026-09-20, and USD is the conversion the page displayed at checkout. All copies are the Japanese print of the Pokémon TCG[5]. Condition notes come from the seller’s own Mercari / Yahoo! Flea Market condition field (translated); Suruga-ya rows are shop stock and carry none. Listing titles are in Japanese — the tiles below link to each copy. Mercari supports overseas buyers via partner proxy services[3].
The ¥10,666 Mercari slab leads with authentication available; Yahoo! Flea Market at ¥10,999, then Mercari at ¥11,311 (authentication), Yahoo! Flea Market at ¥11,900 and Mercari at ¥12,800 (authentication). The PSA 9 at ¥7,999 is a Mercari listing priced ¥2,667 under the cheapest 10 — not enough of a discount to make sense. Raw copies are ¥2,222 and ¥2,499 nearly unused and ¥2,800 unused, all Mercari, all with the authentication option. Ten raws in stock is modest, and the three cheapest are all clean.

Everything on this page refers to the Japanese-language Mega Latias ex, collector number 088/063 in Mega Symphonia. An English print of the same artwork is a different card with its own number, set name and market[5], as are promo versions and full-art variants from other sets. Match the number on the slab label before you compare any price.
Mega Latias ex PSA 10 value: is the slab worth 4.8× a raw copy?
A 4.8× multiple, or an ¥8,444 gap, is the grading premium on a ¥2,222 raw card, and the PSA 9 at ¥7,999 — 75% of the 10 — is the listing that tells you not to grade your own: a 9 that sells for that much is a seller’s hope, not a market, and the real price of a miss is lower. PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6] is the same bar as always; the ¥10,666 finished slab is cheap enough that the wait and the risk are not worth saving.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥10,666 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥2,222 | Cheapest way to own the artwork; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy with Mercari authentication | ¥3,922 | ¥2,222 + ¥1,700 authentication fee[1]; the card is checked for authenticity before it ships, but it is still ungraded. |
Buy the ¥10,666 slab. For the binder, the ¥2,222 nearly-unused raw with Mercari authentication[1] (¥3,922 all-in), or the ¥2,800 unused copy. Skip the PSA 9.
How to buy Mega Latias ex SAR 088/063 from Japan
The Mercari slab and the Mercari raws go through the same five steps.
- Step 1 — Search by collector number. On OneMall, searching “088/063 PSA10” in the Mercari tab surfaces slabs the English name never would — most Japanese sellers title the card in katakana.
- Step 2 — Compare against today’s floor. Today’s floor is ¥10,666 for a PSA 10 and ¥2,222 raw; treat those as your anchors when a new listing appears.
- Step 3 — Buy it. One click adds the item; the order is placed on Mercari on your behalf and received at the Japan warehouse.
- Step 4 — Authentication or inspection. Mercari authentication (+¥1,700) is available on listings that show it[1][2]; the proxy’s own inspection and photo service covers the rest.
- Step 5 — Ship when you are ready. Free storage runs 90 days, so several cards from different sellers can leave as one consolidated parcel.
