What is a Japanese collectible really worth — and how easily does it sell? This guide pairs two honest, first-party signals for our top categories and series: a reference value from HD Store’s own recorded sales, and a market-liquidity read (how often we actually sell items in that category). Every figure comes from our real eBay and Shopify sales — not a third-party price guide — and we show the sample size so you can judge it yourself.
Based on our last 50 recorded sales · updated daily · sales data as of 2026-07-17.

Liquidity: High
Real recent example: One Piece TCG Two Legends OP-08 CASE Booster Box C sold for $2,050 (one of our own sales; individual result, not a guaranteed value).
In our last 50 recorded sales, 13 were in this category — one of our most actively-traded categories. We currently have about 149 item(s) listed. Liquidity here means how often this category shows up in our own recent sales (a trading-frequency signal), not a full market turnover figure.
Our own recorded sold prices by condition grade. Grades with at least 3 recorded sales show a real median and range; the rest read “accumulating” and fill in automatically as we sell more (we never present a single sale as a market rate). How to grade condition →

How condition changes value & liquidity
We grade with the same vocabulary as our free Self-Grading Checklist — use it to place your own item on this scale. The direction below is how condition generally moves collectible value and how quickly a piece tends to sell; it is not a guaranteed price.
| Condition grade | What it means | Effect on value & how fast it sells |
|---|---|---|
| Sealed / Mint | Factory-fresh, unopened, or as-new (new in box). | Commands the strongest prices and tends to sell fastest. |
| Excellent / Near-Mint | Opened or displayed but with only minimal, honest wear. | Strong value with steady demand from collectors. |
| Good / Used | Clearly pre-owned with visible wear, complete or near-complete. | Mid-range value — still very collectible and the bulk of a healthy market. |
| Damaged | Notable flaws, missing parts, or heavy wear. | Sells at a discount and typically moves more slowly. |
Real per-grade sold prices appear inside each category above (under “By condition”) for any grade with at least 3 of our own recorded sales; grades below that threshold read “accumulating” and fill in automatically as we sell more. Use the reference value together with the checklist to judge where a specific item sits. Assess condition with the checklist →
Killer Series — by Franchise
Trading frequency for the franchises we sell most, from our own recent recorded sales. More sales = a more liquid, easier-to-move series. Example prices are real individual results from our own sales, not guaranteed valuations.

How to Read This Page (Honestly)
- Reference value = prices our own items actually sold for (our recorded eBay/Shopify sales). Individual results — condition, completeness, rarity and timing all move real prices.
- Market liquidity = how frequently we sell items in a category or series, measured from our own recent sales sample (n=50). It is a trading-frequency signal, not a full market turnover metric — we’re still structuring inventory-age data for true turnover.
- Condition uses the same grades as our Self-Grading Checklist. Each category shows our real sold median and range for any grade with at least 3 recorded sales; grades below that threshold read “accumulating” and fill in automatically as we sell more (we never show a single sale as a market rate). Grade data comes from our own eBay sales records (read-only).
- Where we don’t have enough data yet, we say accumulating rather than guess.
