Searching for: pikachu Art Academy card by MAME AKIMARU

It’s crazy stuff in MTG land. Worth a look mate :slight_smile:

Haha, alright XD; got any sites I can check out to see the insanity?

Nothing specific with concentrated information on hand, but I guess you could eBay MTG singles and arrange high to low.

Some cards from even the newer sets in foil go for crazy amounts.

It’s not like PokĆ©mon where trophy cards and high end promos/Charizards make up the valuable card market. Their big numbers come from older stuff and some sealed product.

I’m actually really enjoying collecting specific MTG cards, the artwork is insane!

Okay I looked on ebay and jfc $16,000 for a BOOSTER PACK?!

Yeah okay MTG wins I’ll stop derailing the thread now omfg…

(and yes the artwork is faboo )

Yup, MTG is crazy expensive and prices keep on climbing, I purchased my Black Lotus (Beta) for $4,000-ish back in 2006 and now they’re up to almost $10,000.

Want to hear a heartbreaking reality? They were $30 back in 1994.

Pokemon can’t ever be Magic because magic has similar volume now but started with extremely small print runs. We have always had large print runs.

If PokƩmon started with print runs as small as those in magic, I suspect the numbers would be similar or even favor pokemon because of its ubiquity.

Charlie, can we move this discussion to another new thread please?

Sorry OP and mods for going wildly off topic =(

Not enough consistent content to justify a new thread, I fear, but let’s just take the conversation back to the topic we started with. :blush:

It varies per card, the less amount that are on the market the higher the price, plus I think certain artwork is valued more than some others.

Just bumping up incase anyone has any updates on this card being sold, thank you :blush:

I have a lot of early MTG but never saw any Beta with white borders? The 3rd series, Revised, did have white borders though.

EDIT: Sorry, I didn’t see the later comments;)

Alpha - Black Boarders
Beta - Black Boarders
Unlimited - White Boarders
Revised - White Boarders (No Power Nine and some other broken cards were also not reprinted)

Hello everyone, I’m just posting again to see if anything has changed with the artist of this card and if anyone has seen any around? Hope that’s ok to ask again… Thanks x

She’s still around. Still only trading for winner cards from what I’ve seen.

I might still have her email. Not 100% sure though.

Oh that would be brilliant thank you - I’m guessing this may be the only way to contact her?
Thanks so much!

Is that you in your photo?? Such an awesome pic man!
