Here's another good place for decently priced Pokemon goods:
Hobby Link Japan
The upside is they do not charge an arm and a leg for Tomy figures, D-Arts figures, Figma, whatever it is you desire. They also don't overcharge on shipping, and they have an option where you can have them hold your items for a month, which is nice if you are waiting for certain releases and just want to have them all shipped to you at the same time. That, or have them held until you can afford the shipping, which has gone up really high over the past 4 years. My God.
The bad thing about this place is that you HAVE to pre-order what you want way in advance otherwise you can kiss whatever it is that you are looking for goodbye for the next four to six weeks. Sometimes you'll get lucky and find what you're looking for in stock, but hot damn you have to be quick. Almost everything is sold out by the time it is released, but it can't be helped, especially with their great prices.
All in all, it's a great place to pre-order items, but a terrible place to look for items that have already been released, because more than likely it will be sold out or backordered.
EDIT: I don't think it has been mentioned here, but since Pokedoll USA was brought up in this thread, I thought I should bring it up anyways. The owner of the site was banned on pkmncollectors for ripping off multiple people and deleting Facebook comments regarding the whereabouts of their items or any negative comments that would deter business. Right now the page itself is "under maintenance," but should it ever come up again, I would recommend anyone who is interested in buying Pokemon goods to avoid this place.
