I don’t see it quite as drastic as pulpyfan. It’s hard to tell what the card is worth because sales are very rare, but traditionally it’s roughly 130 - 150% of the Espeon Star, so your guess ($20,000 - $30,000) isn’t that far off.
I’ll put it this way, if I owned this card I would need to hear astronomical offers to even peak my interest.
I think offering 30k is a good starting point depending on the listing. I only see this card a couple times a year. In today’s market, securing it is more about availability.
There was a sealed copy that sold in the Mandarake auction for (I think) 1.5m JPY, though it’s hard to say if that was overshadowed by the 98 No. 1 Trainers. It’s also not the most accessible market.
Edit: Yes, it was 1.5m. The Espeon also went for 880k.
Last sold sealed copies in 2020 have been 22.5k, 17.5k and 15.4k. In that order, Iv talked with many that have sold their psa 10 in the last year or so and current offers and they are in the 20-25k ball park. I’d say your offer is spot on. Is that enough to entice someone who isn’t looking to sell? Maybe not but for someone who is looking to sell you have a great offer. Btw if anyone is selling an espeon hit me up lol.
I should make a post in the buy section. Contacted a guy who had all of the play promos but he’s working on building the collection further. So the shiny hunt continues.
Haha I hear that. Checkout my IG crystal_pokemon_tcg if you are interested in selling some of the play promos frequently posted. Just finished the kanto trio. Good luck on the search
Along the same lines what would you guys say general values are for each Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon? and it looks like Umbreon is already discussed.
