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

[xxashxx]

My local card shop just got some stock in, and part of it is some WOTC era cards that a player donated. Cards from base set, Jungle etc. They are in good condition, near mint. All of them holos. My card shop sells individual holos at AUD $5 (about $3.50 USD). Are they worth anymore than this or could I buy them and resell on eBay for a profit? They also had an unopened Ancient Mew.

Some of the cards were Mewtwo, Venusaur, Blastoise. Lots more, as I didn't take much notice. Now I'm kicking myself, wondering if I should go back and grab them before somebody else does. There were lots of other old cards including DP era ex cards but I don't know if any of them are valuable.

Yeah most cards go for $10.00 or higher and if you have any of the 3 starter Pokemon e.g. Venusaur Charizard or Blastoise you are talking big money if they are in good condition and that means near mint or mint conditions only.

Hi,
I was sort of interested in trying to sell some of my old pokemon cards from years ago and I was just wondering what I might be able to get for some of the following cards:
Mewtwo Star- Holon Phantoms
Latios Star- Ex Deoxys
Charizard Star- Dragon Frontiers
Kyogre Star- Ex Delta Species
Metagross Star- Ex Delta Species
Alakazam Star- Ex Crystal Guardians
Groudon Star- Ex Delta Species
Celebi Star- Ex Crystal Guardians
Flareon Star- Ex Power Keepers
Holteon Star- Ex Power Keepers

Any price estimates would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks

I would say the mewtwo is worth around $40 and the Jolteon around $32.
I'm definitly interested in these!

Do you know how much the Charizard would be worth?
Thanks

Sold listings on ebay are around $75. Going up to $250+ for PSA graded.

I think the base electrode if you have it still goes for $20.00 but not sure. I got mine from a friend for $10.00 though.

 

[THIRTEEN]

Base set Electrode is around 1/2 dollars.

I bought:

Palkia EX
Dialga EX
Melloeta EX
Latios EX
Life Dew
Rock Guard
Crystal Edge

The lot for 5 euro / 7 dollars

Its a rare misprint I think. I have one in OK condition, but it was worth at least fifty dollars in the Meh condition its in (at least that's what 2 collectors said to me about it once when I got it).

Also, price on:
Gem Mint PSA 10 Pikachu Soccer XY-P 50 Japanese Promo
Gem Mint PSA 10 M Gengar Shiny XY-P ? Japanese

Why have the base set cards come down so drastically? Last I knew most of the base set cards were around $10.00-$20.00 for most of the cards. This was when I lived in Canada anyway.

The non-holo rares in Base Set like Electrode were never worth that much. Heck, most of the holos aren't even worth that much right now outside of the big names (i.e. Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur, etc.) or 1st edition versions.

I got a misprint Hydreigon form phantom forces and it has the holo effect of Diancie, if you know what I mean (I can't explain because my English is not so good).

edit: Better picture: http://srv2.jpg.co.il/7/5473906b3a910.jpg

and the Diancie that I'm talking about: https://pokebeach.com/scans/phantom-forces/71-diancie.jpg

If you look very very close the holo pattern on this card doesnt match with Hydriegons shape but Diancies. How much do you think this card worth?

If you'll pay attention you can see diancie's shade. How much do you think this card worth?

I can't tell from this angle. Maybe a better screenshot might help? Thanks.

Hah, that's actually pretty cool. I don't know if I've seen a misprint like that before.

A remarkable find. I haven't seen one of those, if I'm not mistaken, it could be a first timer for all that we know. With TPCi's quality standards nowadays I'm not surprised...

As for the card itself, this is quite the find! I have not seen or heard of this type of error before. But as far as the value goes, it will vary from collector to collector. There's nothing to base the price on because nothing like this has been found before.

Honestly, I see no difference.

RE: Pokémon Card Misprints Database - Post An Image When You Report

I dont see a difference here also its supposed to be that shade of pink.

Can't you see it?
Maybe you saw the first image, because I made another and better image.

In Canada the fair I used to go to sold most of the rares for $10.00-$20.00 and if it was one of the starters it was $35.00 and up back in 2001. XD.

RE: Pokémon Card Misprints Database - Post An Image When You Report

OH! now i see it!!!

If you look very very close the holo pattarn on this card doesnt match with Hydriegons shape but Diancies. You have to use the second pic linked and compare the Hydriegon and Diancie cards from Phantom Forces.
