    I have a Base Set German Growlithe, how much would that be? I know it's only Uncommon but I figure the German part would mean something.

    Ok, how much would my Pignite card be worth? You may think it's just a regular Pignite, but it's actually from the McDonalds promo. I looked on a website for the predicted price, but I wanted some real people's opinions.

    Also, I know I'm breaking the rules for listing more than 4 cards at once and listing Common and Uncommon cards, but I have a bunch of Japanese cards that need pricing, and it would just be tedious to list 4 at a time, so here they are.

    All of them are in near-mint condition, if not fully mint. If these cards aren't worth anything, then I have nothing good that I own except for the McDonald's promo Pignite.

  • I pulled the Secret Rare Charizard from Plasma Storm a while back. I recently found out it was a misprint because it's second attack requires a Fighting Energy rather than a Fire one. I also have heard that the misprint is actually less valuable in this case, and was curious about its value and how big the difference is between it and the fixed version?

    Japanese cards can be tricky to evaluate. Not having very large sample sizes to go off of on eBay, I can only give estimates based on the rarities: All commons: $0.10 to $0.20. All uncommons: $0.15 to $0.25. Volcarona: $2 to $4.

    Well, it's more common than the fixed one, as it doesn't look like they've really released the fixed one in any print runs yet. The initial rush to buy packs by players in collectors is what determines what cards are readily available, and as the error, if it's even been fixed at all (I've yet to see a fixed version myself), was the version in the set at its release, that's going to be the most common version of the card.

    The misprint most commonly fetches between $35 and $45 on eBay, with some outliers on both sides of the range.

    I bought 98/99 off eBay, its a Salamence card. Just want to know if I got ripped off or not.

    If you're talking about the Level X one from the Arceus set, I've seen them go anywhere from $6.20 (One that was played with) to $9.99 (Mint/NM).

    Sure, just post them on this thread, and others or myself will give you a price range to the best of our abilities. Make sure to include what set they're from also.

  • B/W Mewtwo holofoil EX
    Original Pocket Monsters Totodile, I think it's a johto card, cause it has the old design and the totodile is illustrated by Ken sugimori, and it uses his old style of illustrating.

    I don't know the last three, I don't know what base they're from, or anything of the like. The Mewtwo holofoil could either be a FA or the promo, you didn't specify.
