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
Thanks to this, Traveling Chocobo will likely be the most expensive Final Fantasy MTG card when looking at all variants
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
