How to read this forecast

The fan shows where the forecast puts the price in 60 days; the lines from today to then are drawn, not forecast day by day.

Assumes the whole market keeps rising about 3.9% every 60 days, as it has lately. That part is a guess from the recent past, not a prediction — the 'vs market' figure above does not depend on it.

Prices here are TCGplayer's market price, which is an average of recent sales, so it trails a real move by a few weeks. Part of any short-term forecast is that delay catching up — visible in the chart, but not something you can buy at.

Beating the market, or just riding it?

Not enough trading to say

It trades too rarely, or has too little recent price history, for a 2-month comparison with the market to mean anything.

Describes the last 2 months, not what happens next. Not investment advice.

Is this card interesting right now?

Ordinary - 31 out of 100

It ranks above 31% of the cards we track. The score describes the conditions around the card today - how sellers are pricing it, how it is trending, how steadily it trades. Its weights were tuned on how cards moved over the following 60 days, so a high score is a tendency across many cards, not a forecast for this one - and it says nothing about whether you will enjoy owning the card.

Why is it interesting?

Slipping this month and jumpy price

It has fallen behind the rest of the market over the past month. The price lurches around, so what you pay depends heavily on timing.

Is it becoming more popular?

No - losing ground

Compared with the Pokemon market as a whole, so a rising tide does not count as popularity. In this market these trends have tended to keep going rather than reverse.

Past month-4.2%
Past 2 months-5.8%
Past 4 months-11.0%

Is it expensive or cheap?

$2.68 - cheap for its set

At $2.68 it is one of the cheaper cards in its set - number 478 of 632 by price. It costs more than 29% of other Promo cards we track. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.

What makes this card unusual?

An ordinary Promo from a 10-year-old set

Promo is a widely printed rarity - 4,015 tracked cards share it. This is the Holofoil printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork. The set is about 10 years old, so surviving copies in good condition get scarcer over time.

Could you actually buy or sell it?

Slowly - it rarely trades

The price changed in 13% of our checks over the past year across 365 observations. TCGplayer's market price only updates when a copy sells, so a low figure means the price shown may be stale and any trend reading is built on very few real sales.

How does the grading fee compare?

Fee exceeds raw price

A roughly $22.00 grading fee is 821% of the $2.68 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $24.68, before shipping, insurance or selling costs. That is a cost comparison, not an estimate of a graded copy's value. We track raw ungraded prices only - no graded sales and no population data. We cannot assess this copy's condition or tell you what a PSA 10 is worth. Check condition and comparable graded sales before deciding whether grading would pay off.
