Looking for trading cards in Shinjuku-sanchome?

GORIMARU Vintage Collection offers a changing selection of Pokémon cards, PSA-graded cards, vintage cards, promotional releases, and other collectibles.

Collecting trading cards is not only about finding the most valuable or highest-graded card.

Some collectors focus on their favorite Pokémon or characters, while others look for cards they remember from childhood, interesting artwork, or releases from a particular era.

Pokémon card collectors may enjoy searching for both modern cards and older Japanese releases, including vintage old-back cards and promotional cards distributed through magazines, campaigns, and special events.

Characters such as Charizard, Pikachu, Mew, Gengar, and Lugia have appeared across many different generations, making it possible to build a collection around a single favorite Pokémon.

PSA-graded cards, including PSA 10 and PSA 9 examples, are also popular among collectors.

Visiting a physical store gives you the chance to see graded cards and different artworks in person rather than choosing only from online photos.

GORIMARU Vintage Collection features multiple rental showcases, with items selected by individual showcase owners as well as the store’s own selection.

Because of this, you may come across cards and collectibles that are a little different from what you would normally expect at a typical trading card shop.

Depending on the day, you may also discover other trading cards, hobby items, and vintage collectibles alongside Pokémon cards.

If you are exploring card shops around Shinjuku or Shinjuku-sanchome, feel free to stop by and browse the showcases.

Many of the cards and collectibles are pre-owned or one-of-a-kind items, so the selection changes regularly.

You can come looking for a specific card, or simply enjoy wondering what you might find today.

That small sense of treasure hunting is part of the experience at GORIMARU Vintage Collection.
