you can check in and around the psa cert number on the website… sometimes i do that if i see an interesting batch of cards to see what else they submitted

$3200 is a great price to sell for especially once you factor in seller fees and insured shipping. What cert range was yours?

Really?! How do you do that?

you can take the cert number and increase/decrease by 1 each time til u get an error or some card that is completely different :laughing:

Haha brilliant, should have thought of that.

I saw some people pumping the Jesse & James full art on twitter and now the card has like 10x over night in price :crazy_face: doubtful the price will hold bc this was like <$10 for the longest but here we are

Just saw this too. Just traded a copy this weekend for $35 value, still have the card since USPS closed the last couple of days, the other party is going to have a nice surprised. PSA 10 of it has skyrocketed too. What a crazy and wild market right now.

Its weird because its absolutely a very cool card in my opinion and was probably undervalued at like $5 but when cards meteor like this it feels very off-putting to me idk why. Like it doesnt feel natural or genuine

People tried pumping that card a while back if I remember. I don’t think it worked if you could still pick it up for 5$ till recently

The English market is weird right now with a number of contributors.

The new sets are slowly ramping up the heat peaking at 30th Anniversary. This bubble still has a lot of growth.

Shrouded Fable completely cooled the market which resulted in less distribution orders from PTCG. Pikachu Surging Sparks jolted the collectors back along with 151 reprints.

Going back to distributions some regions have still have got 2 more sets of low yields to look forward to. Expect sell outs in 15 mins on PC for Glory to Team Rocket as well.

Distributors claim PCTG are shorting the market in anticipation of the 30th Anniversary.

“Distributors claim PCTG are shorting the market in anticipation of the 30th Anniversary.”

Am I crazy for asking how that makes any business sense

Seems like a dumb move to me. Sell less product, make less money. Obviously you can overdo it and print too much, but with the current demand it would take a lot to get there. I do think they purposely under printed Surging Sparks personally to heat up the market and I think they overshot on accident. Just my $0.02

The best way to sell more product is to first sell less product. Ignore the fact that printers are running 24/7 and that the idea makes no logical sense. Just trust the feels and vibes ya know

Just curious, what was the all time high for this card? Everything seems to be high new highs.

$105,000 if I remember correctly

Anyone else feels as if the English vintage market is picking up?
The last few weeks a lot more of my cards have sold.
Also supply for shadowless cards is way lower compared to a few months back.
Charizards creeping up in price too.

It’s cuz so many of them went for so low over the past almost year. Supply shifting demand consistent I think
