A note on sourcing: the Zapdos ex 204/165 prices above are the asking prices on each item page, re-checked on 2026-10-24, 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].
On 2026-09-20 the cheapest slabs ran ¥27,500–¥30,000 with one Mercari copy at ¥44,999, and raws were ¥9,000–¥10,260. On 2026-10-24 the slabs in the listings below are a ¥25,980 Yahoo! Flea Market copy and a ¥34,700 Mercari copy, both described as unused.

Everything on this page refers to the Japanese-language Zapdos ex, collector number 204/165 in Pokémon Card 151. 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.
Is Zapdos ex PSA 10 worth 2.05× the raw card?
A 2.05× multiple and a ¥13,281 gap separate the ¥25,980 slab from the ¥12,699 clean raw. No PSA 9 in the listings means there is no reference for a miss on PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6], so a self-submission on a raw copy is a bet without a published floor; grading fees and two-way shipping also eat into that gap, so for most buyers the finished ¥25,980 slab is the simpler route to a 10.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥25,980 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥12,699 | 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; the ¥12,699 and ¥16,666 raw listings checked on 2026-10-24 offer it (¥14,399 all-in for the cheaper one). |
Buy the ¥25,980 slab with unboxing photos. For the binder, the ¥12,699 raw with Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)[1] (¥14,399 all-in).
Getting a Zapdos ex SAR 204/165 shipped from Japan
The purchase runs the same for the slab or the raw. Step by step:
- Step 1 — Search by collector number. On OneMall, searching “204/165 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. On 2026-10-24 the floor in the listings above is ¥25,980 for a PSA 10 and ¥12,699 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 official authentication (+¥1,700) (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) 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 after arrival (30 days after consolidation), so several cards from different sellers can leave as one consolidated parcel.
