Hey guys, I’m looking to purchase a 1st edition base Charizard PSA 10. Looking to spend around 32k-35k usd depending on thick or thin stamp and quality of the card. I’m willing to Pay via paypal F&F. Ideal is to meet in person to do the transaction. I can meet you anywhere in the USA and Canada.
Please follow me on Instagram @pokemoncard_99 if you want to work out a deal.
I predicted that one would sell for less than the norm because it was from Australia and had a $500 shipping fee, which deters people more than $500 worth. It’s just human psychology.
People should be expecting to pay $40k+ for a good PSA 10 1st edition Base Set Charizard (not a “weak” 10, no problems with the case, etc).
I do believe that a strong, thick stamp 10 could approach the $50k mark.
I personally haven’t seen any offers approaching $60k, but if Gary is saying that I’m not doubting him. No doubt he gets more offers than anyone else.
Am I the only one seeing that the 36k zard has a crack in it? This is a gigantic deterrent because it could be damaged from the crack and requires a recase by PSA where it has another chance to get damaged.
From what I understand, the crack damaged the integrity of the case meaning that the card will need to be regraded before it is re-cased, there is no guarantee the crack has not damaged the card and there is no guarantee that the card receives the 10 again. What are you paying 36K for if you’re not getting these guarantees?
Weakest 10s ever? What are you talking about? Zard there is zero chance you can tell what holo looks like so throw that out. Centering looks fine maybe a little shifted to right. Back I see zero whitening.
Eh, Char/Stoise are a little OC but still passable
Char/Venusaur have very minor corner whitening
The only one which is meh is blastoise since it’s OC and has minor corner/edge whitening. Definitely not even close to the weakest 10s I’ve ever seen though
Both the Blastoise and Venusaur, while maybe still in spec centering-wise for a 10, are off centered top/bottom and left/right enough for me that they look deserving of 9s.
