Describes the last 2 months, not what happens next. Not investment advice.
Is this card interesting right now?
Above average - 65 out of 100
It ranks above 66% 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?
Climbing for 2 months and sellers less firm than most
It has done better than the market over two months, which is long enough to be a trend rather than a blip. 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?
Yes - consistently
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+0.8%
Past 2 months+28.3%
Past 4 months+12.1%
Is it expensive or cheap?
$5.56 - mid-priced for its set
At $5.56 it is mid-priced for its set - number 141 of 345 by price. It costs more than 40% of other Promo cards we track. It is 6% below its 12-month high. Worth knowing: in this market cards near their highs have gone on to do better than deeply discounted ones, so a big discount is not automatically a bargain.
What makes this card unusual?
An ordinary Promo from a 7-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.
Could you actually buy or sell it?
Easily - it trades often
The price changed in 55% 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 396% of the $5.56 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $27.56, 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.
