What is for sale

This listing is the sale of a personal eBay seller account, created in 2009, that has specialised for 14 years in selling Pokemon trading cards to overseas collectors. The account has no stock included, has never been suspended, and the owner is selling because they are retiring from the eBay business to focus on other ventures.

This is an asset-style transfer of a single eBay seller account, not a company, so the buyer takes over just the account and must handle Payoneer, address and payment changes in their own name, re-applying for business status if needed.

Wrinkles a careful buyer would ask about

Paying for it

If you stay overseas. No Japanese bank will lend to a new company whose director lives abroad. The realistic stack is your own cash plus asking the owner to take part of the price over 2 to 3 years. That one question is in every Deal Pack.

If you move to Japan. On a visa that lets you run a business, Japan Finance Corporation lends up to ¥72M at about 1 to 2 percent for exactly this. Once you have a Japanese company, the government pays two-thirds of due diligence and registered-broker costs, up to about ¥8M (round 16 closes 6 Nov 2026). You start a bank relationship from zero.

What this listing says. The seller states that after the sale, if a refund is required for an order placed before the transfer (within 3 months of sale, matching eBay's own refund window), the seller will handle that refund themselves, and will also pay the buyer 30,000 yen for each negative feedback received after the sale (only for items sold before the transfer); no refunds are given to the buyer after payment is completed, and nothing is stated about broker fees, loans or guarantees.
