She’s only willing to trade her cards. Those that have them bought additional copies from other winners and exchanged them with her to get personal copies for their collection. At this time, she is not accepting trades due to personal circumstances. Your best bet, honestly, is to wait it out long haul. There are a ton of different reasons they might surface: seller changes mind, local negotiates deal, person who currently has them runs into financial despair, so on and so forth.

Just buckle up and wait. In twenty years, it won’t matter if you got it five years prior or fifteen years prior. Just make sure you’ve got the finances when the opportunity rolls around. It always does.

I have my thoughts and feelings about it all but I keep them to myself because they’re cynical and unproductive. But all is well! Hahaha. Ask me about my opinion on how to interact with someone whose cards you wish you had some time.

I’ve heard some people refer to this as the “Stadium Challenge Deoxys” theory of collecting.
Not me of course, I got mine super cheap years ago. But some people.

For sure. Another great example.

It is interesting in collecting how much tension exists between our desires to complete and the necessity of patience. It’s as though we are always reigning in covetousness and riding out desire. It’s incredibly human.

Apart from the Pikachu Emotions, this one is probably my favorite of the twelve Art Academy Pikachus. I hope to have all 12 one day. Currently I have my third one incoming.

A big thank you to everyone who replied!
I know it’s hard to obtain but never imagined it this hard!!
Anyone know a rough price guide, would it be in the thousands??

So far the Academy cards are selling in the hundreds, even graded. So for now you’ll be fine.

The very first one that surfaced was being sold for around 200-300 by noodles here on E4, and from there most prices went up. Average prices became 300-400, and now some are being sold graded for a little more than that. Ultimately one side will cave if more sales are to happen, and which side does first will determine the next price point. I’ve passed up buying one of the Pikachu’s, because the seller was asking approximately $600 USD shipped for a non-graded copy. A bit more than I was willing to pay at the moment.

It really depends on the cards now too. The Goomy sold for nearly $600 ungraded on Y!J before fees.

As far as I’ve seen, it’s always been more expensive.

Look harder my friend. MTG is a level above Pokémon still.

You think so?

I’ve watched MTG from afar for a long time so I do admit I don’t know too much about it, but I haven’t seen that many high end cards aside from the Beta white border set and some of the trophies. I guess I just haven’t seen as much on the high end side XD;
