Terms and FAQ

v.2.1 updated on 14/10/2024
  • What's in a Mystery Pack?
    You will be purchasing a service: the creation of a custom Mystery Pack, the contents of which will be secret until you receive it. We will do our best to choose an assortment of cards corresponding to the theme you’ve chosen and the announced shelf price (8,000 yen for the Entry Mystery Pack, 25,000 yen for the Premium Mystery Pack). We may however choose to include some cards that do not perfectly match your chosen theme if necessary to ensure the contents satisfy the announced shelf price.
  • Is the value guaranteed?
    While we guarantee to include contents bought for the announced shelf price, the corresponding value on the western market stated in the product description is only given as an approximation based on data available at that specific time – we cannot guarantee the resale value of the cards on the secondary market, which is always changing by nature.
  • Will my order arrive in time for the end of year festivities?
    We will ship your pack as soon as it is ready between November 4-10, but the time it takes to get to you will be up to international postal services. If you'd like shipping to be as fast as possible, consider picking the faster EMS shipping option (+11€) when submitting your order.
  • What's the Chase Option?
    At no extra cost, when you submit your order you have the option to specify a card you really want us to keep an eye out for. If we can find a copy that fits your budget and preferences regarding condition etc, we will try to include it in your pack. Please note however that you are NOT guaranteed to get that card in your pack.
  • What about card condition?
    We will choose cards for you based on the priorities you've set, the local stores' self-evaluation of the card, and our own expertise and judgement. Do note however that while we strive to meet your expectations and although Japan's quality standards are high, we cannot guarantee that the cards you get will meet the specific standards required for professional grading.
  • Can I cancel or return my order?
    Once your payment has been received and an order confirmation email has been sent, we will not be able to accept returns or offer refunds under any circumstances.
  • Do you ship everywhere?
    The price includes standard tracked shipping to Europe, Oceania or Asia. For other destinations such as North America or South America, customers will have an option of either paying an extra 3€ or getting 500 yen less in cards to make up for the higher shipping costs. Note that some destinations, such as Brazil and Guernsey, may have considerably longer shipping times.
  • Are there import fees?
    Please note that additional fees upon delivery may be applied by your local delivery service depending on the import policies of your country of residence. We are not responsible for any additional costs applied by the government once a package has arrived, and we will not be able to reimburse these costs.
  • How do I pay?
    We accept "Friends and Family" Paypal transfers so that more of your budget can go towards cards and less towards Paypal fees, but feel free to choose "Goods and Services" if you'd rather pay for the Paypal Purchase Protection. In which case, the value of the pack’s contents will be slightly lower to make up for the difference.
  • Do you ever turn down orders?
    If your order cannot be accepted because we've reached our maximum orders limit, because the order time window is over, because your request couldn't reasonably be satisfied, or for any other reasons, we reserve the right to cancel and refund your order. Your order will be confirmed once we've received your payment and sent you a confirmation email.
  • Can I specify cards I don't want?
    We are unfortunately unable to accept specific requests of cards to avoid, as that would considerably complicate and slow down the process. Likewise, if you've already purchased a Personal Shwooper Mystery Pack in the past and choose the same or a similar theme, we can't guarantee you won't get doubles.
Thanks for reading the terms – you've made Wooper happy!

Who's my
Personal Shwooper?

Your shopping will be done by Antoine (@ToineLay on X), who in addition to being a trusted Japanese-to-English translator for the Pokémon community, is also an avid collector who has spent more than 7 years in Japan and knows local card shops like the back of their hand.
You can trust them with finding the best deals on cards you'll love, and to make sure the card's condition matches your needs!

Antoine is one of the nicest, most reliable and most knowledgeable people in the Pokémon community. I have asked them to source everything from recent TCG cards to obscure DS games and they have always come through.
I always say I won’t vouch for someone unless I’m 100% sure they’re legit. Antoine is legit!

Host of PTCGRadio and legendary Pokémon Caster

Antoine's knowledge of Japanese Pokemon cards is like a treasure chest. Their passion for collecting, combined with their understanding of Japan, ensures top-notch selections – many times they’ve helped me find cards I couldn’t find anywhere else for my Komiya collection!
The thrill of discovering what's inside each package is always a joy, and it’s not just about the cards either — the care and thoughtfulness Antoine puts in each choice truly makes a difference. Highly recommended!
