Where to Buy Labubu
Here are the best options that are fastest and safest.
Read below on the Pros and Cons of each of these locations and for other tips and things to watch out for when you go and buy Labubu.
Pop Mart Labubu Where to Buy
Pop Mart is the official creator of Labubu and is where people who search for where to buy Labubu go to first.
Unfortunately, Labubu is ALMOST ALWAYS OUT OF STOCK and SOLD OUT on Pop Mart’s store, vending machine, website and app but if you want to try your luck, here are 4 ways to buy from Pop Mart.
1 ) Pop Mart Website
You can visit official Pop Mart website but it’s almost always sold out
2 ) Pop Mart App
It is also very difficult to buy Labubu on the app because it’s always sold out or a long wait time.
You have to preorder and then wait a few weeks or months!
Sold Out or Long Delivery Time
Here is an example of what happens when you try to buy Labubu from Pop Mart’s website or App.
Note the bottom date says launch date (day it’s available to purchase and not the official release date of Big Into Energy which was in April 2025) is Aug. 28, 2025 but it doesn’t ship till almost 2 months later in Oct. 15, 2025!
3 ) Pop Mart Store
There is almost ZERO chance you will be able to buy Labubu at a Pop Mart store
They’re always sold out.
Unless you line up on the day of release, you will never be able to buy Labubu there.
Find Closest Pop Mart Store
Pick a location type, then search by city or use your location. Your location stays in your browser.
Tips to get the best results
- If location is blocked, enter a city or zip and tap Search.
These stores are cool places though because you get to see Labubu displays and see how they look like especially the larger plush Labubu dolls such as Zimomo, Rock the Universe, Flip with Me, etc.
Tips
If you do decide to go just make sure you have realistic expectations.
Chances are you will NOT be able to buy Labubu but you do get to go to a cool store.
Some places like in the United Kingdom stopped store sales after violence from people fighting to buy Labubu.
If you’re really determined to buy one, then make sure you check the app (you can sort by store) in advance for store inventory.
Or…
In our opinion, if you want to just save yourself time and buy one on Amazon or eBay instead.

4 ) Pop Mart Vending Machine
Another Pop Mart option is to buy Labubu from an official Pop Mart vending machine but they’re almost ALWAYS SOLD OUT as well.
Find Closest Pop Mart Vending Machine
Search by city or zip, or use your location. Your location never leaves your browser.
Tips
- If location is blocked, type a city or zip and tap Search.
- Can’t see any nearby? Try widening the area or searching a big mall in your city.
Each vending machine has limited supply so they sell out fast and also you have to deal with long lines and there is no policy that prevents one person from buying them all up at one time.
Unfortunately in mid 2025, there were some isolated instances of violence around these vending machines as people fight to buy Labubu.

How to Avoid Fakes When You Buy Labubu
There are tons of fake Labubu or “Lafufu’s” out there so be careful!
Here are some quick tips to help you from getting scammed and buying a fake doll.
1 ) Be Realistic With The Price
Real Labubu are all sold out on Pop Mart so be expected to pay around $35 to $50 for a blind box because the reseller usually wants to make a profit.
Anything $25 or under is generally a fake!
2 ) How is The Display?
Real authentic Labubu are tough to find and buy so we would be careful and suspicious if someone had cases or boxes of Labubu to buy.
Example of Fake Labubu at Gift Shop
We saw this display in Los Angeles at a random gift shop with tons of Labubu’s for sale
There’s no way that a random tiny toy shop have so many Labubu’s for sale!
They’re all fake!!!

Here are bunch of fake Labubu’s sold at the cashier of a restaurant.
None of those are real Labubu and if you’re not sure which is real or fake, you can compare them to our Labubu Checklist and see how they looked like.
3 ) How Do They Look Like?
Some fakes are just plain ugly but some are harder to tell.
