If the winning bidder of this listing is a foreigner using a forwarding service, I will attach a separate gift labeled "THANKS." This will be a Japanese Pokmon card, with an estimated winning bid price of around 10,000 yen on eBay, according to AI's multifaceted investigation. The actual purchase price in Japan is about 500 yen, and I will select items with particularly large price differences between Japan and abroad to handle the shipment.
The intention behind this gesture is that, according to AI's calculations, foreign bidders will incur an estimated total expense of 4,000 yen for shipping and customs procedures, even if the handling fee is low. This is to help cover those costs. Therefore, I will also bear an additional cost of 500 yen to provide the gift. Considering the price estimation error by AI, I will set the Pokmon card at 10,000 yen, but the actual market price will likely be lower, resulting in a fair outcome.
I mentioned that I would give 500 yen worth of Pokmon cards as a thank you for winning the bid, but that's not true. I'm sorry. My brother runs a toy store founded in 1920, so I actually get items worth 500 to 1000 yen at market price for only 35 yen. It's cheaper than writing "THANKS" by hand on a fancy greeting card; it's just part of the packaging material. This 35 yen trick in cross-border e-commerce mainly in the USA is worth 10,000 yen. If you are an overseas bidder, please throw it on eBay to recover the costs. If you are in Japan, giving it to a young child you know will make them happy. Currently, I attach it to all packages for bids over 1500 yen. I aim to include one set for every 5000 yen, so for a bid of around 10,000 yen, there will be two sets.
