According to Pokemonprice.com the last one sold for $40,100 more than a year ago…is there any legitimate private sale data that any of you have heard of since then? Price pretty stable at that price or has gone up / down? Thanks!
We’ve also had people come on to efour offering $40k for one but haven’t been able to find a seller.
The only Charizard you’re likely to get for less than $40k at the moment is the sketchy listing on eBay in which the seller is unwilling to show the back of the card.
There have been at least 3 privates sales around $40k since the auction, which makes 5 total sales around $40k (including cullers’ first $40k sale and the auction). The price seems to be stable since the jump from $26k to $40k.
This is mirroring the sentiment from 2 years ago where everyone was set that the charizard card was 20k and will stay there after a meteoric rise in price, and PWCC certainly helped bring a consistent supply to the market each month with psa 10 auctions. each copy sold for 20k consistently for months. when supplies dried up a little, people started getting impatient and started paying 25k, 30k, then quickly 40k. if the current drought continues for a bit longer, say a year or so, i can see people willing to 50-60k or more just so they can lure out a seller of this card, particularly a strong one. if i had the money today, i’d be willing to offer 50k for one of the most iconic cards in the hobby.
I graded that card and used it to stage the one after it which was nice. I was shocked when it got the 10 too. But then I sold it because I didn’t feel it belonged in my collection. The other sequential hole is now part of that set on eBay and though not great at least I thought it could get the 10.
