Hiya, I'm trying to get every version of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl as a hobby of sorts. Korean is the language that's proving by FAR the most difficult to find, unless I want to shell out $250 on eBay.

Are there any stores people can recommend? I'm already aware I'll likely have to use a proxy, but as an English 22 year old, I'm very poorly versed in Korean online stores and how to find them.

Seen some Pokemon Pearl Korean version but they are $220+
Yeah, those are the ones I've seen around.

I'm pretty sure they're not actually worth that much, but low supply low demand kind of leads to these things sitting uncontested for some superfan or crazy person to buy up (Probably me if I get every other language before I find a reasonably priced Korean lol)

They seem much more reasonable on the site mentioned by rahcchi
You can try sites like Bunjang, they work directly with Delivered (a proxy) to send them to outside South Korea.
I instantly found a Pearl for $50-ish. Definitely seems like people overseas are more obsessed with their scarcity than those in the country.

They seem to float between $40 and $60 USD
