About Secret Chase

Secret Chase LLC is a Seattle-based import and media company exploring the blind-box economy from the inside.

We buy and sell designer toys and art collectibles across Asia and the U.S., operate resale stores on Mercari and Temu, and publish Blind Box Daily, a working blog about how character IP moves across the Pacific.

Our long-term goal is to help develop new American IP.

Secret Chase currently operates two ongoing projects:

📰 Blind Box Daily — A working blog about the blind-box economy, part reporting and part field notes.

🛒 Seattle Toy Store — A resale and testing lab that tracks what actually moves in the U.S. market.
