Hi,
I’ve already made a Pikachu Card Collection thread, so why not a Wanted thread as well.
As I mentioned in my collection thread, I only focus on all regular sized TCG Pikachu Cards. EDIT: And now also Jumbo Cards! (So this is excluding Pikachu-shaped Dittos, cards featuring Pikachu, Jumbo Cards, stickers, etc. and this does include all languages, stamps, codes, misprints, etc.) Here in this Excel you can see my collection (in green), incoming cards (in yellow) and needed cards (in white).
I’ve also put a Wanted cards list in this thread which might be easier for some. I’ll try to update it regularly when I have new incoming cards. This version below is more updated than my Excel.
So, first of all the quality: My main preference is Ungraded M/NM, but any quality/grade will do, even if it’s heavy played/PSA-1.
All Pikachu Cards I’m still looking for sorted per language:
(Added prices to give an idea of what I’willing to spend for a M/NM copy, but it is of course negotiable. NOTE: Prices are including shipping towards me in The Netherlands.
I’m also willing to buy PSA-graded or played quality cards, but I prefer M/NM ungraded.)

Do you know about a Pikachu Card (perhaps misprint) that isn’t mentioned in my Excel yet, let me know (preferably with pictures if possible). If you want to sell one that isn’t on this list, even better. I also buy miscuts, crimped, square cut, ink drops, and other misprinted/error Pikachu Cards.
Greetz,
