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?

Above average - 60 out of 100

It ranks above 61% 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?

Very steady price and sellers less firm than most

The price moves in small, calm steps rather than lurching around. Asking prices sit above recent sales, but by less than on most cards - so relative to the rest of the market, sellers here are less firm.

Is it becoming more popular?

Mixed

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+0.0%
Past 2 months-3.6%
Past 4 months-11.0%

Is it expensive or cheap?

$42.12 - expensive for its set

At $42.12 it is one of the priciest cards in its set - number 9 of 251 by price. It costs more than 66% of other Secret Rare cards we track. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.

What makes this card unusual?

Secret Rare - a scarcer rarity

623 tracked cards share this rarity (1% of all cards we track). 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 8 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?

Material fee versus raw price

A roughly $22.00 grading fee is 52% of the $42.12 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $64.12, 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.
