    I am not overly experienced ordering things from eBay, let alone Japan, the seller was patient and answered all of my questions. The price was excellent. The cards aren't the exact ones in the photo but the quality was great. The packaging was very secure and once it shipped it arrived quickly. Would definitely order again.

    I am absolutely thrilled with this purchase and the overall experience! From start to finish, everything was seamless, professional, and way beyond expectations. The seller communicated clearly and promptly, answered all my questions with patience and detail, and genuinely showed care throughout the process. The item arrived far faster than anticipated and was packaged with incredible attention to detail, ensuring it was completely protected during transit.

    Item arrived safely and as described. Seller puts good protection to ensure safety during shipment. There was a noticeable delay between when the tracking number was provided and when the item was actually shipped. However, the seller team were very responsive and communicative throughout. Once picked up by Japan Post, the item arrived in the US within 7 days. Overall, shipment took about 3 weeks past eBay’s estimated date but item is very nice to be added to my personal collection. Thank you!
