Sourcing · Japanese print

Japanese Pokémon boxes, bought where they are made.

Japanese print is the most requested product we handle: sets that never release in English, high-class packs, and booster box cases at prices and quantities the export market cannot match. We buy at source in Japan and deliver insured to your door.

Why collectors want the Japanese box.

Japanese Pokémon product is printed to a higher standard, sold in Japan only, and often carries the first appearance of an illustration months before the English release. Supply outside Japan is thin, resold and marked up several times over. We remove the middle layers.

Delivery worldwide. Dubai and the United States are our home markets, and we deliver fully insured to collectors in any other country as well.

What we source from Japan

  • Booster boxes and full cases of current and recent sets
  • High-class packs: the premium end-of-year releases
  • Japan-exclusive sets with no English equivalent
  • Pokémon Center Japan releases and gift boxes
  • Older Japanese sealed product from private holders

How Japanese sourcing works

We buy through established channels in Japan, in the quantities you specify, and consolidate before export. Every box is photographed before you approve: the Japanese factory seal, the shrink-wrap and the print details. Export, insurance and paperwork are ours; the consignment reaches Dubai in three to six days and the United States in two to five.

How you know it is right

Before you approve, you receive photographs of the exact units: factory seals, shrink-wrap, print codes, corners and any packaging wear. The decision is yours, made on evidence. What you approve is what ships, insured for its full value, with signature on delivery.

Questions about Japanese product

Is Japanese Pokémon product cheaper to source than English?

At source in Japan it is generally priced well below what exported boxes fetch abroad. Our all-in quote reflects the Japanese price plus sourcing, insured delivery and our fee, usually still far below the resold price in the Gulf or the Americas.

How do I know a Japanese box is factory sealed?

Japanese boxes carry a distinctive seal and shrink pattern. We photograph both, plus the lot and print details, on every unit before you commit.

Can you source a full case rather than a single box?

Yes. Cases are standard for Japanese product, and we photograph every box in the case.
