The figures are listed prices, not sold prices: each was read from the live item page for that Mega Lucario ex copy on 2026-11-05, 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 PSA 10 is ¥15,000 on Yahoo! Flea Market, seller condition “No obvious damage or stains”; it is below the ¥15,500 floor of the 2026-09-29 sweep, when thirty-two slabs ran ¥15,500 to ¥18,000. Raw copies are ¥4,500 on Mercari (seller condition “No obvious damage or stains”; still check the photos) and ¥6,480 for Suruga-ya’s pre-owned shop copy — a ¥1,980 gap.

Scope: Japanese Mega Lucario ex 088/063 (Mega Brave). 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 Mega Lucario ex: what a 3.33× premium buys
A 3.33× multiple, or a ¥10,500 gap, is a real premium — measured against Suruga-ya’s ¥6,480 raw the slab is 2.31×. With no PSA 9 in stock there is no price reference for a self-submission that misses PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6]; the 2026-09-29 sweep also found thirty-two 10s and zero 9s. A ¥4,500 raw keeps the cost of a submission that misses low.
| Route | Cost on 2026-11-05 (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥15,000 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥4,500 | Lowest-cost route on this page; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy a raw copy with unboxing photos | ¥5,000–¥5,200 | ¥4,500 + unboxing photos (¥500–700) so you can check condition before international shipping. |
| Buy a Mercari raw that offers the authentication option | ¥6,550 | The ¥4,500 listing does not offer it; the ¥4,850 Mercari raw (checked 2026-11-05) does: ¥4,850 + Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) at +¥1,700. Suruga-ya’s raw and the Yahoo! Flea Market slab do not have it. |
Buy the ¥15,000 slab for gem mint; it is a Yahoo! Flea Market listing, so Mercari’s authentication option does not apply. Buy the ¥4,500 Mercari raw for the binder or a submission, ¥1,980 under Suruga-ya’s ¥6,480, and add unboxing photos (¥500–700) to check condition before international shipping. For Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity), pick the ¥4,850 Mercari raw whose seller enabled it: +¥1,700 (¥6,550 in total).
How to buy Mega Lucario ex SAR 088/063 from Japan
The purchase runs the same for the slab or a raw. Step by step:
- Step 1 — Pick the copy, not the average. Use the table above: the cheapest in-stock PSA 10 on 2026-11-05 is ¥15,000, ¥10,500 above the ¥4,500 raw; anything above the range there is paying for a seller’s optimism.
- Step 2 — Order through OneMall. Click the tile, add to cart, and a Japan-side team places the Mercari or Yahoo! Flea Market order for you — sellers who write 海外発送不可 (no overseas shipping) still ship because the address is a Tokyo warehouse.
- Step 3 — Optional Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity). Mercari raw copies where the seller has enabled the option can be submitted for +¥1,700[1][2] — the ¥4,500 Mercari raw on this page does not offer it, the ¥4,850 copy in the route table does; a PSA slab already carries PSA’s grade label.
- Step 4 — First payment, then wait for arrival photos. Ask for unboxing photos if you want to see the slab corners before it flies.
- Step 5 — Second payment for international shipping. A single slab is light; batch it with other cards within the 90 days of free storage after arrival (30 days after consolidation) and pay one shipping fee; the first six orders consolidate free.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a PSA 10 Mega Lucario ex SAR 088/063?
The cheapest in-stock PSA 10, checked 2026-11-05, is ¥15,000 (US$103.50 before shipping) on Yahoo! Flea Market, seller condition “No obvious damage or stains”. In the 2026-09-29 sweep, slabs ran ¥15,500 to ¥18,000.
Are there any PSA 9 Mega Lucario ex slabs in stock?
Not on 2026-11-05, and the 2026-09-29 sweep found none either (thirty-two PSA 10 slabs, no 9s).
Why is the cheapest raw lower than Suruga-ya’s copy?
On 2026-11-05 the cheapest raw is ¥4,500 from a private seller on Mercari, seller condition “No obvious damage or stains” (check the photos), and Suruga-ya’s pre-owned shop copy is ¥6,480, a ¥1,980 gap — individual sellers often price below shop stock. That listing does not offer Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)[1]; the ¥4,850 Mercari raw does, for +¥1,700 (¥6,550 in total), and the Suruga-ya copy cannot. Either way, unboxing photos (¥500–700) let you check condition before international shipping.
Which set is Mega Lucario ex SAR from?
Mega Brave (M1L, メガブレイブ), one of the two launch expansions of the MEGA series; 088/063 is its special-art-rare number above the 63-card base.
What is the PSA 10 population for Mega Lucario ex 088/063?
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 showed instead was supply: 32 PSA 10 slabs, 0 PSA 9 slabs and 11 raw copies of Mega Lucario ex 088/063 in stock in the 2026-09-29 sweep — the ratio of slabs to raws is the practical read on how heavily the card has been graded.
