Collecting "How Much is This Card Worth?" / "Is This a Good Trade?"

Usually a damaged card is worth about 1/3 to 1/2 less or worse depending on how the severity of the card. For example a card with no gloss or just loss of shinyness will be like $10.00 or so less and if you have a creased card with no gloss the card is even worth way less. You want mint or near mint or good condition cards to get the highest possible price.:)
 
I have 1,107 Furious Fists C/UC/Rare non-holo cards I want to sell on but I have no clue how much I should list the lot for (if I should sell it as a lot) and how much I should expect. I honestly don't care how much I make as I mostly just want to get rid of them. I want to list it as a lot and charge like $5 or so flat for shipping and I'll cover the rest should it be more.
Hopefully this is the right place to post and thanks for any and all help!

Here are screenshots of the list!

btw all the cards are in amazing condition. although i didn't exactly inspect each card, as i counted through them i definitely didn't notice any problems. they were all pulled from packs and just stacked up
 
Does anyone have a clue about how much the entire set of holos from "Skyridge" graded PSA 10 would be worth?

I've been collecting them for over two years now, and I'd like to know the value of them altogether.

Not thinking about selling BTW.
 
Why is Mega Gengar-EX from Phantom Forces selling for so much? 3 were sold in 24 hours!!!!! They're selling for $37.97 Each!!!

Gengar is one of the Best Ghost type Pokemon and he is also from Generation 1. Gengar's typically go for $30.00+ depending on how good the card is. The Fossil Holo Gengar went for a lot and I think it still does. Not sure how much the Fossil one goes for now but it easily went for $30.00 back then too. Might go for $60.00 if not more now but like I said not sure now.:)

While I'm generally opposed to estimating values of cards based on the Pokemon alone (since for almost each of them besides Charizard, the value is moreso determined by the card's rarity, artwork, and playability when in format), I don't know how much Fossil Gengar (or any other) went for when it was first printed.

However your estimate on the current price of Fossil Gengar is absolutely wrong. Fossil Gengar typically goes for $4-7 USD.
 
I'm looking for a Latios * and someone has offered me theirs for my Torchic * + $45. I'm from New Zealand so that would be about $35/36 USD. Is that an alright deal? Both in Near Mint condition.

I'd say there's a difference of ~US$20 in favor of the other end of the trade. However, that's up to you, if you're looking that Latios * that's a relatively scarce difference.

When I used to live in Canada specifically Ontario Canada they were going for $30.00+ at their fairs they had. I remember going to the Pokemon cards booths and their holos and most were $30.00+ This counted GST and PST GST is 8% on every dollar and PST is 7% on every dollar. Canadian. That added roughly 15-20 cents extra of tax on every dollar in Canada. The card base prices were at the time back in 2001 were pretty high compared to now. As I said I was not sure how much they are now. I was lucky to get the Holo Jungle Electrode for $5.00 and with tax it was around $8.00. That was 13 years ago. I am not sure what the prices are now but in Canada back then most Rares in Ontario Canada where I lived you could not get a rare for less than $20.00. That is why I said the price as I said. But I don't know the new card prices. Even the Base Charizard back then was $35.00 up there but I was not able to get it. Electrodes have always been cheap but the base one was worth $20.00 but my friend gave it to me for $10.00 XD. Sorry if you got me wrong on the last post.:(

$4-7 USD seems high, when looking at this page.

Yeah there are a few there that are over $4.00 with Shipping. Wow they sure dropped in price drastically compared to 13 years ago where I used to live. I am an American was only there for 7-8 years though. But Yeah back then where I lived prices were extremely high due to the GST and PST beside regular tax. Things were expensive back then.:)

Yeah i'm needing it to finish a set.
 
I have an entei and suicune tin from i believe 2010. i bought them a few years ago and want to sell them now. they're still sealed but only come with 3 booster packs unlike similar tins that i have seen that come with 4. anyone know a good price to start them at? I'm thinking $22
 
3 Pack tins retail usually run about $15.00-$17.00 and places like card shops sell them for about $20.00. This is retail guys. When you buy a tin retail this is what most stores charge for their tins. Even the 3 pack ones go for as low as $12.00.:) USD funds XD.:)

Iirc, those are repackaged tins places like CVS sold, not the original tins. Would probably not be too much, I would say 15-17$ is a good starting point, per tin. I am probably horribly wrong on that lol

Price check on Full art japanese genesect EX (1st ed.) mint?
 
At Rite Aide where I live they sell those type of tins for $11.99 a piece so you could sell them for $15.00. At the most XD.:)
 
Anybody know what a fair price for a PSA 10 Mega Charizard SR (x) would be? I'm currently engaged in a bidding war on eBay with someone else who seems to want it pretty badly (I know there's only 3 graded 10 copies as of now) and don't know if the other 2 were sold yet.. We're at $370 right now, but I am a little hesitant to keep bidding, because I think my brother might've just pulled the 4th Gem Mint copy, and we will submit it tomorrow to be graded.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated :D
