Import costs - Shipping from Japan adds some cost, but not enough to close the gap Market perception - English cards traditionally seen as more "collectible" in the US When English Cards Cost Less There are exceptions: Bulk commons/uncommons - English cards are easier to find locally Vintage cards (pre-2010) - English Base Set, Jungle, Fossil can be cheaper than Japanese equivalents Promos - Some English promos are more common than Japanese versions Bottom Line: If you're budget-conscious , Japanese cards offer better value per dollar , especially for modern chase cards
Take, for example, the Charizard from the original base set: a first edition Shadowless Charizard was recently sold for over $200,000
Though Ultra Rares and Full Arts have clear definitions as to what the cards will look like, Secret Rares do not: their only definitive trait is that their card number will lie outside the deck number
Duelists can still register for the MASTER DUEL Remote Duel Extravaganza Main Event after registration has closed at 10:45 AM PDT on July 29th, but those Duelists will be registered with at least a Round 1 Match Loss as a late entry
I really enjoy this deck and want to keep working within it until I'm super happy with it
