WTB Snap Bulbasaur, Arita-Signed 1st ed Base Bulbasaur

Some of you may have recently heard that I purchased a BGS 8 Snap Bulbasaur. For reasons I would rather not go into, the seller and I agreed to cancel the deal in question. No one was at fault and the seller and I are on good terms.

Anyway… Here are my offers for a Snap Bulbasaur:

PSA 9 - $25k
PSA 8 - $20k
Raw - Depends on condition

Also looking for an Arita-signed 1st edition Base Bulbasaur WITH A SKETCH. My offers are:

PSA 10 - $1,500
PSA 9 - $750

All my offers are negotiable.

wow, good luck on the snaps! lovely cards.

Sorry to hear about the deal falling through, GL on finding another!

I’m assuming you know the pop. I’m skeptical anyone outside of Japan is holding an ungraded copy (I could absolutely be wrong). One graded copy is owned by a guy who has a one of every (or at least most) snap cards that have surfaced publicly. I believe he has the 9, I don’t think he plans to break the set. I’m not sure where the 8 is.
Thought the info might be useful. Good luck

@pkmnflyingmaster, Yeah, I’m aware that it’s a long shot. Thanks.

I have seen Onlycollectibles on insta/youtube have a lot of the snaps graded with PSA. Maybe send him a message and try your luck? :blush:

Yeah, I messaged him. He had the PSA 9 pass through his hands but he said he was just middle-manning for another collector who he doubts would consider selling the card. (Which won’t stop me from trying :stuck_out_tongue: )

The guy he’s middlemanning for is the same as @pkmnflyingmaster mentioned. A.f.a.i.k. that collector (whoever it is) has eight out of ten SNAP cards in his possession, all graded by PSA. Only the Magikarp and Pikachu are missing, which are the only two pkonno hasn’t put up for sale on Yahoo Japan yet.

Anyway, good luck in your search! Those are some solid offers, since the raw one that was bought from pkonno2002 in 2018 went for 1.5M JP. Yen (~13k USD excluding fees).

Greetz,

Good luck with the hunt.:blush: That arita sketch 10 is a huge goal for my Bulbasaur collection as well.

Is there a japanese pokemon forum similar to e4 for collectors over there?
