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 - 39 out of 100
It ranks above 39% 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?
Sellers undercutting and firmer than most over 2 months
Median asking prices sit below the recent-sales market reference - sellers are pricing more aggressively. It slipped slightly behind the market over two months, but by less than most cards did.
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+1.4%
Past 2 months+6.1%
Past 4 months+1.6%
Is it expensive or cheap?
$8.16 - expensive for its set
At $8.16 it is expensive for its set - number 57 of 207 by price. It costs more than 76% of other Rare cards we track. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.
What makes this card unusual?
An ordinary Rare from a 14-year-old set
Rare is a widely printed rarity - 6,033 tracked cards share it. The set is about 14 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 19% 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 270% of the $8.16 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $30.16, 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.
