I think it is tough to find somebody who is willing to let go of their Oyako- Khan.
On the other hand, I think it is easier to visit Japanese Shops that sell the Kahn. I just checked the Mandarake site for a Parent-Child Khan but they do not sell it online.
I would recommend going to Nagoya and Visiting the Mandarake there instead!
Well I contacted them already and it sold the day before, so why would I waste the trip! Hahaha guess I’ll never be the best…or understand that’s power that’s inside
Yes, It was purchased for around $1800 I want to say? Then was flipped to the current seller for $2825 and he listed it for $4500. I sent him an excellent offer for the given condition but to no avail…then he Jacks up the price to over $6k…
Should have scooped it up when it sat on Yahoo…but hindsight is 20/20…I just cant justify spending that much on a card that would effectively grade a 3 at best.
I thought about jumping on the Khan too when it was on yahoo.jp too. I’m surprised it’s sold for the price it has but I guess it’s just being increased more and more by all the flipping of the same card…
Of course no one wants to take a loss on a card. I was surprised when it did manage to sell for $2825 as I felt that was overpaying. As for me, even with my offer I feel that I am on or surpassing that threshold for its condition. Perhaps I am best to reign in my excitement and desire to have it in favor for another one coming along.
I wasn’t surprised it sold, and wouldn’t be surprised if it sold again. I received numerous inquiries from that ig photo of the copy in japan. So many people want this card, there simply aren’t enough to go around.
My only advice would be, when the next copy appears, bird in the hand. There was an under-priced psa 9 that popped up over the summer. About 10 people were offering $100-500 lower than the price. Sure enough it sold in an hour for the Buy It Now. Since then the last psa 9 sold for more than double that sale price.
The IG photo was priced at 280,000 yen though, approx. $2500 if I am correct. That is still a big discrepancy between that price and the now $6500, let alone condition. I am sure it will sell, for what amount I have no idea. All I can say is that it wont be to me, unless for some reason they change their mind.
