Hi, I’m Ryutaro.
Choose sealed boxes, bundles, ungraded singles or PSA 10 cards. Your quote confirms which items are in stock and which need sourcing, their condition or packaging, the final JPY price, shipping cost and estimated dispatch date.

WHY I DO THIS
I know what it’s like
when stock
doesn’t sell.
I’ve bought products that didn’t move and sold at a loss. There were times when I wondered whether I was cut out for this.
So I understand the work behind researching Japanese cards — and the worry of holding stock. Finding prices and choosing products can take up the hours between your job and your family. I want to take some of that work off your hands.
That means more room to focus on your customers and the people who matter to you. Tell me about your shop, who you sell to, and what you want to offer them. That’s where we can start.
Ryutaro
FROM MY DESK TO YOUR DOOR
Care in every step.
From Japan to you.
Listen to what you need
Send the products, quantities and budget. I check availability or sourcing results in Japan.
Check the actual items
I check bundles and graded cards and send photos before payment.
Confirm the details
Your JPY quote separates the item price and shipping cost, with an estimated dispatch date.
Ship with tracking
Your quote confirms whether FedEx serves your destination. After dispatch, you receive a tracking number.
MORE THAN AN ORDER
Cards, business,
and life in between.
I grew up in Japan. Now I get to work with sellers around the world — and talk about our lives as well as our businesses. That’s one of the things I enjoy most about this work.
Some customers have even come to visit from Australia. One day, I’d love to travel and meet more of you in person.
You don’t need to place an order to start a conversation. I want you to feel that you have someone in Japan you can talk to.
