Wow that’s gone up! My fiancée collects Charmander cards and I picked up a 1st Edition PSA 10 copy for her at the end of last year for £85 (~$112 or so). Being a common card if we use @hyruleguardian 's figures here and assume that for every Charizard there are 76 or more Charmander cards, it could be said that Charmander has a larger slice of the market than Charizard.
Edit: And I hadn’t even seen your post above mine until now! $1400 for a Charmander is crazy.
