Oh no, I’ve created a monster by sharing those auctions…
Interesting feedback, thanks everyone for your opinions. I guess we’ll know more within few weeks once the items have arrived to winners, however what @prochaos and @spinch mentioned is really worrying info.
That seller is a joke. Months ago when I saw some of his listings I asked him politely if a card had any scratches on the holo and next thing I know I was blocked lol.
In this thread five full sets of four, one set of three, and one pair (Pikachu & Mewtwo) were mentioned. Assuming the partial set of three contained a Pikachu, that would mean seven in that thread alone.
After that thread I’ve seen TCA buy a NM one for 3k (he has a video of it); recently one was available for sale on a FB group I’m active on, where last I checked the highest offer was 1.5k (so not sure if it actually sold - might check tonight after work); and now this one on eBay.
And I’ve also seen two more in the past when I had just started collecting Pikachu cards.
Assuming all mentioned copies are unique, that would make the count of Inverted WB Pikachu cards (I’m personally aware of) 12 thus far, although it’s possible some have changed hands.
Imagine telling the owner a few years ago that his $15 bellossom would one day be given a label making it a $7k card. Pokemon is truly an amazing hobby
I’m surprised nobody has mentioned the fact that plumppolarbear shills so hard it’s not even funny on top of not disclosing damages. All round bad seller imo.
According to Bulbapedia (which doesn’t seem to have a picture as well), only 8 copies were ever produced definitely making this god-tier rarity.

The BW Black Star Promo print was released in Japan as an unnumbered BW-P Promotional card and awarded to the top four competitors from each league in the Mystery Card Battle, one of the many events present at the Pokémon Game Show, held at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center, Tokyo on August 17 and 18, 2013. Keldeo-EX was only awarded on August 17, making the Japanese version rather elusive with only eight total copies, with Rayquaza-EX being awarded on August 18 instead.
