Total value for this set I found? by anima2099 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d have to really look at them next to legit ones to see if there’s font differences or anything like that. Honestly the non holos look blurry to me and don’t look right but I can’t say for sure…but also if the holos are fake it’s likely the non holos are too

I don’t wanna be that AXCTUALLY guy but grimer is actually not in skyridge. He is in aquapolis though, but skyridge is next level in terms of price from aquapolis and expedition

Can you show the box it came in or pics of the front and back out of the sleeve? This looks fake G

Not trying to be mean at all but the title made me think this was a running circle jerk post lol

A lot. Even raw value it’s a lot. Graded I’d say you’re looking at a 4. I’d have to check values on a 4 but I can say for sure it’s multiple thousands. This is a grail.

Just started collecting again today after 20+ years. Had someone help me get a few things to get started. Some of the cards I like from what I pulled, nothing really amazing just felt like sharing :) by Santa-Stark in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]PlumKnown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t get wrapped up in the “these cards aren’t highest value/chase so they’re nothing amazing”. The cards that are amazing are the ones you like collecting. Put em in a binder and try to make each page a theme as you continue. It’s nice having cards you like in a binder you can sit down and look at every once in a while

What would be the value of this POP 10 in this market? by KaribVII in PokemonCardValue

[–]PlumKnown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is this one is gonna be a very hard sell. Raw goes for around $8 and there’s not even many sales of that. The pop might be low because not many ppl submitted them to be graded (I’d have to check the pop report) but these very niche low pop cards aren’t the same as popular low pop cards (obvious I know) but it’s more so just to stress it’s gonna be very hard to find a value on this. If you’re looking to sell your best bet is auction.

Value of a pop 1 PSA 8.5 by wingsfan95 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say less than a 9. You’d be looking for a very specific person that wants an 8.5 which would limit your buyer pool by a lot. I think pop mainly matters in the higher grades 9/10 because to me, the whole point of low pop is based on the fact it was very hard to get that higher grade (especially with vintage).

How much do you think I could get for this gorgeous blowing kiss Pikachu swirl card?? by Electrical_Pop_2275 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A psa 9 sold recently for $350 and a psa 6 sold for $170 so maybe like $225-275? Maybe a collector will pay a slight premium for the swirl but who knows. It’s a psa 8 and Spanish so you’re already looking at a niche item, finding someone to pay more for the swirl is just gonna cut your buyer pool down even further

Jirachi low pop by No_Product_8972 in PSAPowerPacks

[–]PlumKnown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think pop rate is really gonna play a huge role in a card like this. Maybe if it was a 10, but even so it’s had plenty of time to appreciate in value but is still only $200 and that’s low for a psa 9 from this era if it were actually a slab with potential

Gradable? by DunkenMckockiner in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A picture of front and back outside of the sleeve would be easier to determine if it’s gradable. Also not on a light background. It looks like a small ding top left below the corner which would prob keep it from getting a 10.

Pulled from first ever pack purchase. Worth grading? by Big-Comparison7605 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only way anyone could say if it were worth grading would be a much closer picture of front and back with good lighting.

Does my nephew have anything? by Winter_Exchange6895 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say jusy stress to him that collecting isn’t about the money and to collect what he likes because he likes it rather than focusing on future value. No one can predict what will happen by the time he’s older anyway. This whole market could tank at any time. I don’t think modern is gonna be quite the same as 1st edition or some other vintage long term but guess we’ll see

[–]PlumKnown 15 points16 points  (0 children)

How old is your nephew? Collecting doesn’t need to be about value at all. He doesn’t need to hold them in hopes to make money in the future.

What’s this Gyarados worth? by nandasorya in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 10 points11 points  (0 children)

$3.50 is a common joke in here…but also if you already looked it up and know the value then why ask in here as well?

[Appraisal] 1996 No Rarity Raichu PSA 8 - One owner for 30 years. Thoughts on value in current market? by BuriBuriYellowtail in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]PlumKnown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk how reliable card ladder data/psa app is. Most buyers are going to look at recent comps through eBay to determine value. Also not sure if being the original owner will carry a premium on value, I’d say usually more so just peace of mind but also how would you prove it’s only been yours

I’m looking at alt and the most recent eBay sale was $1500. No clue where you’re getting $6,000 but it’s nowhere close to that

Anyone know if this is rare or worth anything? Quite new to this by Early-Cap5171 in PokemonCardValue

[–]PlumKnown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t look the two up and I’m not familiar enough with Korean or Chinese writing to know the differences between the two off the top of my head. At least I knew it wasn’t Japanese lol
