The card looks amazing imo, itâs an eevee and price is fairly low. But it is from an unpopular setâŚ

Are you trying to weasel out of buying 20 premium Machops?

Yep, I sure am. Next time I will make it clearer that cards will not be bought in quantities greater than one. I thought that was implied, but I was wrong.

If you havenât guessed any cards, then feel free to do so now! You most definitely wonât be chosen as one of the cards that will be bought, but I will be keeping track of all the cards suggested here before the end of September on the previously linked Excel sheet.

Thanks for tracking! 
super fun to follow the outcome of these cards
Itâs interesting to see that the majority of the cards posted are japanese.
Why do you think that is?
Because everyone knows that there is no better english card than 20 machops
we didnât choose to post japanese cards, we were forced

Small update.
I wonât be buying the Pikachu Felt Hat Sealed Promo for this competition. After adding $3 to the Base Set Machop for PWCC Vault fees (<$50), we are at: $999.73. The Sapporoâs Pikachu, Cramorant Stamp Promo, and Magikarp SV1a were slightly more expensive than originally estimated.
All cards are in transit to my PWCC vault. Thanks again! I hope that some of you decide to play along and buy these cards with me.

If you go to @Dylâs first post that created this thread, then you will find it. Scroll down to where it shows the replies, views, users, likes, and links. It will be right there in the popular links. Sorry I havenât updated with the âpurchasedâ price. I havenât looked through the data on eBay yet, but I will do so by Monday. Will likely go with average of the last three sold unless there are very few sales or current list prices cheaper than last sold prices.

When do the prices get added for all the other cards for the excel sheet? Do we DM AP with purchase price or just take a market price?

Iâll update the excel sheet by Monday. Am planning to use the average price of the last three sold on eBay. Will have to guestimate for any cards that have too few sales and will likely use current listing price if it is cheaper than last sold prices.

Please share the link to your PWCC vault when the cards arrive so I can make sure you bought a true 10 condition card for the Unlimited Machop so I know there is no reason it wonât win
