I think it is important to save these pictures here for the next generations!

Idk why, but seeing almost all the copies together in one photo makes the hype for me go down a little lol
Maybe cause now this card doesn’t seem so elusive or so out of reach now

This seller is just trying to hang with those instagram flippers who brag about their recent purchase. He forgot to tag 20 people and add “fire” “dm me if interested”.

My favorite is the ones that post a WOTC 3$ holo with a weed nugget on it.

poliwag isn’t very hype in the first place, but ya the only time that many of one card gets me hype is Gary’s charizard listing.

But Poliwag is cute
How many copies are in existence?

There are 20 in existence.

You gotta give him props, he held onto many copies for years and is wanting to cash out on his investment and patience. I can see some people paying $1-2K USD for one

I mean like someone said above, they might not want to send out all that cash knowing that there is 20 are in existence.
No doubt in my mind it’ll go for more than 1-2K, we really don’t know what could happen. What if he sold off all of them? Interesting to see what comes of this. Imagine if this made the others who have them or if they still exist come out of the wood work with their cards. Maybe like our modern day illustrator cards that happened a few years ago and some squeak their way into the market
He didn’t do himself any favours by revealing he has 16 copies

According to his listing he seems to think the card could sell for 1 million yen (just under 10k usd lol)…I think he has EXTREMELY high expectations. It’s a rare card for sure but it doesn’t exactly have the eye appeal the others do and I’m not sure there’s too many die hard Poliwag fans out there 
If anything I feel like the first one will go for the most and then as he sells more and more of them they’ll keep selling for less and less.
And he wants almost $200 as a fee for any collectors in the states who want to do business directly through him lol

There are a couple potential buyers in the high thousands price bracket. A few snap cards have sold in the high thousands, at least one for 5 figures. However, snap cards are lesser known. Also, since the owner shared they have this many copies, it will probably be a deterrent. Unless they decide to not sell any of the additional for some reason.

That’s just lol, sounds like this guy thinks he’s fallen into the holy grail of Pokemon cards…good luck! For the history and rarity, sure it’s cool. But it’s a pretty ugly card with a limited market and as everyone else in the thread has pointed out; he definitely didn’t do himself any favors by posting that he has all of those! They’ll all hit the market within the next year - this is the best time to sell big ticket items and everyone knows it whether they’ll admit it or not 
The next one is on sale now. Starting price raised compared to the first one
