Thank you for checking. ・This was signed at an illustration exhibition held in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo. An autograph without a recipient's name is quite rare. In markets like eBay, such unsigned autographs are very valuable and seldom seen. ・Due to certain circumstances, I must part with this item, but I hope to pass it on to someone who will take great care of it. ・Only purchasers who spend over 3000 yen could receive a signature, which is why it is on this Marnie SR card. ・While there are many items claiming signed works by famous illustrators online, most of them are likely forgeries. I highly recommend getting a professional agency's verification before purchasing. ・I have submitted many autographs to verification agencies, and the standards for well-known illustrators are quite stringent. Proving the authenticity of the signature and related details is often tough due to the strict review processes. Especially for Naoki Saito's autographs, the verification standards are much stricter than for others. In fact, when I submitted a Naoki Saito autograph for evaluation on a different occasion, all necessary documents were in order, but the case was rejected during the review phase. It seems that the institutions intentionally avoid verifying signatures from well-known illustrators; however, please take this as personal observation. ・Given this, I believe that in the future there will be very few verified autographs from notable illustrators like Naoki Saito in circulation. ・On other sites, there are many unsigned autographs that haven't been verified, and most of them have a high likelihood of being fakes. 【Regarding the photos of the signed card, taking such images without the illustrator's permission is also an infringement of privacy, which holds responsibility for the buyer.】 ・【Important】 This item cannot be submitted for 安心鑑定 (Anshin Kantei) verifications. Although BGS and PSA verifications are possible for graded items, they do not verify the authenticity of the 'handwritten signature' itself, and it was reported that it would be returned as a product that 'does not meet the standards' upon submission. Therefore, this is listed under the talent goods section rather than trading cards. ・I've noticed an increase in pranks involving bids from buyers with low ratings. I will strictly address this and implement caution measures. ※ I may cancel bids without notice, so a brief message before bidding would be appreciated. ・As this is a high-value item, responses to pranks will be taken seriously. Also, for scam prevention, please recognize the N/C N/R (no cancel, no return) terms. ・When it comes to shipping, I will not use simple methods like envelopes or letter packs. I will carefully pack the card to ensure its safety and quality before sending it in a sturdy cardboard box. ## Collector note This autographed Marnie SR card from the Pokémon Shiny Star V set captures a remarkable moment in collector culture, as Marnie has quickly risen to prominence since her debut in the Pokémon Sword and Shield games. Authenticated by Naoki Saito, a well-respected illustrator, this signed card is not just a collectible but a testament to the integrity of the signature amidst a sea of forgeries in the market. Graded BGS9, it stands as a premium example of Japanese trading card craftsmanship, and with only a limited number of signed pieces from Saito circulating, its rarity significantly amplifies its value in the collector community. For discerning collectors, securing such pieces directly from Japan typically ensures better preservation and authenticity, further enhancing its desirability. ## Images - https://auctions.c.yimg.jp/images.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/image/dr000/auc0204/user/cda9dbd6e7dfec9cd8ea28375c07e6a9fdb5adea8000a4229f16b017f5db1670/i-img1200x1200-17761602396799bprt2p117514.jpg ## Links - View on Rinkya: https://www.rinkya.com/discover/item/pokemon-card-marnie-sr-bgs9-signed-by-naoki-saito-certified-shiny-star-e1226531780 - Find live items like this: https://www.rinkya.com/discover/live --- Rinkya is a proxy bidding & shopping service for buyers outside Japan.
