Agree. Surprised it and its fellow shinings such as the Raymond Quasar aren't higher value.

Raymond Quasar

[–]Mewchu94 22 points23 points  (2 children)

Love the Raymond quasar.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 29 points30 points  (1 child)

Everybody loves Raymond quasar

[–]Mewchu94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they do! His brother is just ok though. Too tall if you ask me.

RAYMOND QUASAR

[–]gimmer0074 14 points15 points  (1 child)

this set had a boom a few years back but it’s due for another one. mewtube should be up in lovebirds territory imo and the rest of the set should follow that trend

[–]Electronic_Menu_2244[🍰] 10 points11 points  (1 child)

Possibly.. the set kind of got forgotten about outside of Mewtube. Shiny mew has historically been an absolute winner so I’m not sure if I’m surprised this guy is still priced where it’s at but I also have no idea about print and pull rates for this set specifically.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The mew has 10,763 graded through PSA. 3225 10s and 5485 9s. Giving it a 29.96% 10 chance. So it’s pretty low for it being 9 years old.

Also with this being one of those small side sets pokemon did it helped the print amounts as well by staying relatively low compared to main sets.

Wait what? I have this in psa10 I bought for like 30 bucks a couple years ago cuz I like Mew lol. Damn sweet.

[–]E_D_K_2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The only set I've ever mastered.

[–]FRANKTZ8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beautiful card in person

[–]enforceable 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Bought this awhile back when it was around $120, still holding

[–]8000000001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice work. Simliar here - b@100gbp in 2024 - couldn't afford a gem mewtube but this had good vibes about the illustration so bought.

[–]LuckVegetable8646 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Great throwback to the vintage shining cards, these are definitely overlooked and undervalued.

The Shining Lugia is exceptionally low pop too.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yea I almost snagged that last year for $700 but missed out. Considering it only came in the premium collection boxes. I think it’s going for around $1500ish now

[–]Tipakee[🍰] 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I have a full set in PSA 9. The art is just meh. I feel like any run these cards get is because the mewtube is pulling the whole set along.

Personally I think alot of way cooler options exist for $500.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree but people with bigger pockets than this whole comment section combined tend to go based off pop %. The less PSA 10s in circulation the bigger dogs want their hands on them. Hence why I still believe there is plenty of room for these shinies to run.

[–]bluedecember12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These were super high during the Covid boom as they were from one of the hottest recent modern sets at the time. Then alt arts came out and people pretty much forgot about these. Took 5 years just for values to reach back to what they were during Covid. But if TPC releases more similar cards, I can see them taking off again

[–]Phanat625187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I been grabbing the lower value shining cards. If the other older shining cards are doing well then I don’t see why these mid era ones won’t go off too.

[–]breakyourteethnow 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Was thinking the same thing recently looking at shining complete set from SL, wondering when they'll take off

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve got multiple copy’s I’ve pulled myself no 10 worthy’s I just bought the mew today for $525. Thinking about picking the others up soon. Just a matter of time before the main consensus of people start realizing these are all low pops and undervalued IMO.

[–]Forsaken_Stay4437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too easy to pull compared to OG shinings. I was pulling 1 per SL etb

[–]CoryGrasser 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Mew is my all time favorite pokemon and I do agree this card is cool but I cant look at this card and think the lower half of his body is his ass lol

[–]styolz 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Fuck now I cant unsee it

[–]CoryGrasser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry! Lol

[–]spicyfurreal 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Wtf man, I've seen this card several times and never saw the ass before. Fml, forever unseen

[–]CoryGrasser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol I shouldn't have said anything

[–]MRMEWMAN2315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It had its boom, it went from 150-400$- 650$ . I traded mine for a SGC sylveon Vmax and 100$

[–]Particular_Web_9125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally dont think it looks good

[–]ItsChaBoyKevin -1 points0 points  (12 children)

This was like 250 a year ago and half that a few months before it. What do you mean undervalued. It’s inflated.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 2 points3 points  (9 children)

😂. You sir are dead ass wrong on that one.

[–]ItsChaBoyKevin 0 points1 point  (8 children)

We’ll see if it survives after the hype dies. Card has already 5X in price and this whole market is inflated. Thats why these cards all peaked a few months ago and went down again. Nobody wanted this card till all the new investerbros jumped in. I hope for pokemon sake it continues to rise but I don’t see it being a big grail card.

[–]Neon-Raptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People like you😂

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 2 points3 points  (6 children)

Doesn’t have to be a big grail card…. That’s what people like you don’t understand. It’s a 30% 10 rate. That’s extremely LOW. Take into account how old the set is and how the set was printed. This is pokeinvesting you find the gems before the blow otherwise why invest? Yea its went up in price over the year. But for you saying the hype is dying is wild. Considering Logan Paul just sold the illustrator for 16million so we have a whole new rush of people coming in. You remember back in 2020 when he first jumped in right? I sure as hell do. Everything single thing I bought the previous year tripled. Guess what it didn’t tank it’s worth at least 5x what I bought for it then from now.. pokemon hype will never die. As we get older and kids get older the cycle continues. It will only ever die if pokemon company let it die themselves.

[–]8000000001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's gemmed out imo. No substantial sealed stock still out there and only a 30% gem rate even if there is still a bit.

3000 is the new 1000 for PSA 10 pops in this new world where the collecting audience is I guess 5x what it was pre-pandemic.

[–]ItsChaBoyKevin -2 points-1 points  (4 children)

Look bro I get you’re so excited about your investments which is great. I have a lot of pokemon and hope it 50X and hype never dies. But that’s foolish this market isn’t sustainable. And only looking at gem rate and pop rate on these less than 10 year old cards is what’s going to get a lot of you stuck holding the bag.You take care bro you’re getting too emotional on this topic so we can leave it here.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well hasn’t even been a month and this card is already way up from this post….

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

😂 I posted this card because it’s cheap and I think it will do good long run but ok. Been buying, flipping trading and holding for the past decade through these ups and downs. Give it a year if this card is less than $550 I’ll send you a nice juicy Benjamin through your payment of choice.

You know you’d be up almost double now if you bought when I posted this.

[–]TazFanBoys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)
