I’m submitting a big expensive Pokemon lot to PWCC for the first time. Any tips you all have to make sure it all goes smoothly? My biggest question is when it comes to sealed product do they authenticate it when they get it? I just don’t want people returning my items after they open it due to making up “its fake” or don’t get the cards they want since PWCC allows returns.
Is lugia a pre-registered type bidding system?
If you are thinking about making a play on it, I will contact them as soon as possible
100k+ for the Lugia is nuts tbh
I appreciate that, but I’m not in that financial position hahah was just wondering if we as watchers will have to worry it will get shilled but looks like it won’t.
You’ve got to be bullish and a believer that it’s in a set card class just below Charizard 1st. Or be part of an investor group!
I am late to admit that of the 10 or so top set cards I’d say make one of the pillars in the hobby house, this card is one of them, so yeah, being in the former category of long term bullish I get it. But I would not strive to own it as much as other cards I could buy for that price, either.
What would you say are the other 9?
oh, man! You tell me…OK, if English set cards only as their own pillar…Base Zard, Venusaur, Blastoise. Shining Gyarados, Neo Lugia, Neo Umbreon, some key Gold Stars, Neo Revs, some Crystals…actually I’d probably have to have close to 20 to set the English set pillar. And then maybe in 20 years there would be 20 more to add!
Totally new to PWCC here. This may be a dumb question but am I able to have PSA send completed subs directly to PWCC?

Don’t see why not, you can use your PWCC Vault address as your Return Address. I’ve done for BGS in the past

PSA 4 Grand Party is at $405 currently. I didn’t think it would end that high, wonder how much more it goes for.
Some interesting observations and great deals that have already been made from that block:
JPN Neo 2 box sold for considerably more than a Neo 1 box.
Vast majority of graded Vending, Intro Pack, VS and WEB cards still do extremely poorly on auction (mostly <$100, even for PSA 10), aside from a few odd outliers (link1, link2, link3)
Corocoro Shining Mew is over 3k in PSA 10.
Neo 4 Shining Zard is at almost 18K in PSA 10.
Fan Club Eevee PSA 9 sold for almost double of Fan Club Porygon PSA 9 - which doesn’t make much sense to me, but it seems Eevee is just THAT much more popular.
Neo 2 & Neo 3 Premium File non-holo promos do very well in higher grades, considering how worthless they were a just year ago.
VHS Intro Pack 'Saur PSA 10 sold for 4,5x as the SAME card in CGC 9.5 (3x 9.5 + 10 on surface) → draw your own conclusions from that, but I think the CGC buyer got an comparatively insane deal.
'97 Carddass is the new hot shit. Suprisingly, certain non-holos did as good or better than holos (link1, link2, link3). But Zard is still the hottest of hot shits - 5.6k for this PSA 10.
At least in my fields of interest, those are some pretty interesting data points.
EDIT: Oh, and let’s not forget this English unlimited Neo Discovery Yanma PSA 10. Population of just 9 and sold for “only” $1,125. To me, this seems extremely cheap. But it could also simply mean that there just aren’t that many unlimited Neo Discovery PSA 10 collectors that are desperate for this card.

Fan Club Eevee is the card that made me change my mind on set cards. The artwork, color background, and popularity of eevee should easily account for the price difference.
Well, the artwork comes down to personal preference. I like the Porygon even more and find its background even more interesting. Also you had to have 700 Fan Club points for it, compared to 500 for Eevee. So the barrier of acquisition was higher.
But the prices are what they are, I guess.

I would have loved to grab that yanma for that price!

I also prefer Porygon over Eevee because the artwork speaks more to me but I’m not suprised how high the price jumped in the end (I’m part reason because I bid for it, lost tho). Fan Club cards such a cool thing, would love to have something like that in europe.
The CGC VHS intro pack Venus was mine. Final hammer was painful. I was expecting $250. I’m not normally comfortable saying my cards would have gotten a psa 10, but this one would have. I didn’t want to wait forever to get it back or pay $300 and obviously it cost me big.

Has anyone here who is from the UK ever won a PWCC auction that was less than £135? If yes, did you get charged customs and VAT?
Bit new to me and I am interested in a few of the auctions ending tonight
any help would be appreciated 
The Vending Part was a Shame. On the other Hand good News, maybe its possible to finish the Vending Goal =)
Thanks a lot for digging through and share intresting Parts of Sellblock
I’m a big believer in buying the card, not the grade. I accept that not everyone subscribes to this thinking… BUT when I see a card going for 700% of what the PSA 9 version just sold for I have to scratch my head.
