    Prices for loose carts have gone up here too. Everything went up as small market and importing costs more (also more difficult like for Japanese stuff).
    Although it's still possible to get some cheap stuff; imported US NES carts are an example of this. Also, as I mentioned already, you can snap up a bargain if you find it quickly before it's gone.
    I got an Italian Metal Gear NES loose cart cheap as the seller listed it as untested and also listed it as NTSC. The Italian cart is the same as the UK cart (both have English and are PAL A).

    Atari loose carts have gone up, I got a small lot recently including some double enders but I got onto that quickly.

    It really bother me about how more expensive and difficult it is to import from Japan now (Japan Post still not sending parcels here so DHL or whatever is only option).
    For many years it was easy and cheap to import from there, a lot of sellers would have free shipping.
    Euro stuff was next cheapest but that has gone up too. Can't import from all Euro countries atm but UK is fine.
    NA stuff was always more expensive and higher risk (getting delayed or lost), but now it's insane. Still possible to import from there though.

    It doesn't hurt to skim over a few titles and see if you think it's worthwhile .

    Loose carts are worth selling here but honestly it's easier to bundle a bunch together. It will go pretty quick that way.
    Resellers in particular swarm over bundles, then break it up and put stupid prices on shit

    Shipping rates from Japan to the US haven't gotten too crazy (so long as it's not heavy). The prices for items aren't nearly as cheap what they used to be though.

    I was about to make that suggestion. If he priced it decently enough he could probably sell stuff locally or even online without much hassle. Some stuff is worth selling as a bundle because people will pay extra for the convenience or it's more likely to sell as one .

    Yes if you look at Japan Post international restrictions you can see US has basically gone back to normal. Maybe some other countries too, but not Australia.
    It's still cheap and easy enough to send to Japan from here though (I sent chocolate and stuff to my Uncle some months back, it didn't take like 2 or 3 months to get there). It's just Japan Post being fucking retarded at this point.
