Mew - B/RGB · 30th Celebration

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?

Standout - 98 out of 100

It is in the top 5% of everything 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 this month and sudden jump

It has done better than the rest of the market over the past month. The recent move is far larger than this card's normal week-to-week wobble - something happened. Working against it: the price lurches around, so what you pay depends heavily on timing.

Is it becoming more popular?

Mostly yes

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.

Is it expensive or cheap?

$4,264 - expensive for its set

At $4,264 it is one of the priciest cards in its set - number 2 of 161 by price. It costs more than 67% of other RGB Rare cards we track. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.

What makes this card unusual?

RGB Rare - genuinely scarce, #2 most valuable in its set

Only 9 of the cards we track are RGB Rare - under 0.1% of them. Only 1 card(s) in this set are worth more. This is the Holofoil printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork. The set is brand new - prices this early are driven by hype and packs still being opened, and usually settle downward.

Could you actually buy or sell it?

Yes, with patience

The price changed in 29% of our checks over the past year across 31 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.

What would grading cost, next to its price?

Small cost versus raw price

Grading this card would cost an estimated $300, about 7% of its $4,264 raw price. That is a rough allowance for one card in a small mail-in order: a mainstream grader's fee for a card worth over $2,500, plus postage both ways and insurance. The real cost depends on the grader, the service level, how many cards you send and where you live; each service level also has a value limit, so a more valuable card can need a pricier one. Bought at this price and graded, it comes to about $4,564 before any selling fees - 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.
