The figures are listed prices, not sold prices: each was read from the live item page for that Sylveon 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].
The ¥26,000 Mercari slab — unused, authentication available — leads; Yahoo! Flea Market follows at ¥26,500, ¥26,750 and ¥27,800, and a Mercari copy at ¥42,999 stands apart. Raw copies are ¥12,000 with authentication and shipped in a loader, ¥13,000, and ¥15,150 with authentication — all three described as having no obvious damage, which is rare at the cheap end of a chase card’s raw market. Twenty-two raws in stock.

Scope: Japanese Sylveon ex 212/187 (Terastal Festival ex high-class pack). 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.
Is Sylveon ex PSA 10 worth 2.17× the raw card?
A 2.2× multiple, or a ¥14,000 gap, is a moderate premium on a card whose clean raws start at ¥12,000. No PSA 9 in stock means there is no reference price for a miss on PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6], which makes a self-submission on the ¥12,000 clean raw a bet without a published floor — though fifty-five slabs say the 10 is common. Buying the ¥26,000 finished slab is the certain route and happens to be the copy with the authentication option.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥26,000 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥12,000 | Cheapest way to own the artwork; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy with Mercari authentication | ¥13,700 | ¥12,000 + ¥1,700 authentication fee[1]; the card is checked for authenticity before it ships, but it is still ungraded. |
Buy the ¥26,000 slab with unboxing photos. For the binder or a submission, the ¥12,000 clean raw with Mercari authentication[1] (¥13,700 all-in). Ignore the ¥42,999 slab.
Buying a Sylveon ex SAR 212/187 from Japan: step by step
The purchase runs the same for the slab or a raw. Step by step:
- Step 1 — Decide slab or raw. The cost table above puts the gap at ¥14,000 between the cheapest raw copy and the cheapest PSA 10 today; decide which side of that line you are on before you browse.
- 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.
- Step 3 — Tick Mercari authentication 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.
- 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.
- Step 5 — Consolidate. Up to six orders merge for free and the parcel waits up to 90 days, which is how collectors turn five Mercari sellers into one DHL box.
