Online Selling Shockers

Wow - I have a bunch of these new in the box. Didn't think they are that rare though.

I think the word 'rare' needs to be limited use on eBay. I see very common Plarail trains listed as 'rare' with a crazy asking price. Mostly because they were not released in the local market but it doesn't make them rare or particularly valuable.

These on the other hand...

They are rare to some extent, but the rarity does not quality for such a price. In the end it really depends on the train in the box. If it is a red and black EF-15, not rare. Else if it is red and grey as seen in the picture, it can sell for at least 30000 yen. Red and grey is hardly ever seen in that box, mostly red and black.
