Takes preorders then cancels them months later meaning their customers had no chance to source elsewhere as they were counting on this business to uphold their confirmation. If they cannot not count,... See more

Hi Shannai,

Thank you for your feedback.

Unfortunately, with the current market in Japan, we're not able to import as much product as we used to for the normal $99.95AUD price. We recently brought in a few Sun & Moon sets (Double Blaze, Miracle Twin, GG End, and Alter Genesis), however, most of those sets sold out recently during our birthday sale.

Newer sets are even harder to come by due to low print run, where the suppliers we use do not always get product. Further, outsourcing on the secondary market is almost double our normal listed price.

Given the circumstance, we do not know exactly when we can offer more product as this typically fluctuates on a weekly basis. If Pokémon Japan are able to produce more product to cater towards the international market in the near future, we may be able to see similar stock levels from late 2020.

You can always add out of stock items to your wishlist to be notified when we have them back in stock again, or when they are on sale.

Ordered 1pm one day, delivered within 24 hours to Melbourne. Products available could not be found elsewhere in Australia and the prices were great. Repeat customer and will continue to order from Rare Candy.

Very happy customer

I’ve been buying from rare candy collectables for a while, they have such a wide range of products and at great prices. They put in an enormous amount of effort when shipping so your items will never arrive damaged. They also have excellent customer support. I would recommend to anyone who wants to start collecting.

Hi Alan,

Thank you for your feedback.

To answer some of your queries:

1. As a business, we do our best to offer products we sell at competitive prices, and at times, below recommend retail. Some times product we sell below retail are our lost leaders to bring in new business, so we can continue to grow and expand our product range and services.

We cannot always maintain such low prices on certain items, and therefore, you may have noticed a price difference between the last two sets you have ordered with us.

2. We have an eParcel contract with Auspost that looks after domestic and international deliveries. Our contract includes signature on delivery (which we cannot change) on every order that we send. Auspost may have signed 'COVID' back in March that allowed them to safe drop your previous order, compared to your most recent one.

Alternatively, you can always request Auspost to safe drop your order while it is in transit or redirect it so that you do not have to collect from your nearest post office: https://auspost.com.au/delivery-options

Unfortunately, we cannot add a feature on our website that goes against our contractual obligations with Auspost.

I’ve had a number of great experiences…

I’ve had a number of great experiences with this store but one pretty terrible one so have to rate it at 4 stars rather than 5. Ordered 2 cases of booster boxes and had my emails regarding the cancellation of that order completely ignored. On the orders that have been fulfilled however the goods were packed well, shipped quickly and sold at good prices.

Hi Ehren,

Thank you for your feedback.

In relation to your emails for the order we could not fulfil, we do apologise we did not respond to it at the time.

To answer it briefly, we were not given enough product to fulfil your order, and many others on release. For full details on why we couldn't, you can read it here: https://www.facebook.com/rarecandycollectables/posts/1175422799527652

Great place to buy Pokémon tcg at affordable prices. Wish supplies would get better in the future as I’m finding it harder to find Japanese cards these days…
