Official "How much is my card worth?" Thread [READ THE FIRST POST]

Sooper Dooper important question! Fossil Kangaskan, but no fossil insignia. Flawless. Looks like a base set if one wasn't aware. So how much is a misprinted error Kangaskan? I did my own preliminary searches but I couldn't find anything.

Edit: Same with fossil Snorlax. No fossil insignia. (I should really go through my collection, someday.)

Your searches were failing because the set they're from is Jungle, not Fossil.

Anyway, are they 1st Edition?

WHOOPS. Either way, neither of them are, sadly enough. But thanks for telling me that. I can look it up myself then. ^.^

Hey guys, just started buying the trading cards again after my nephew got a few from McDonalds (they're doing a promo, wonderful thing btw).

I was just curious as too how much these promo cards would be able to sell for? I've only got a Fletchling and x2 Weedle's right now, but I just looked it up on eBay and apparently, some of the cards are going for between $8-$13 AUD and the whole set for $40 AUD + $5 postage? This doesn't seem right, EVERYBODY is currently able to get these cards...

Anyway depending on how much they're worth, I'm going to go hoard McDonald's happy meals until I have multiple sets (one for me, rest for eBay) :P

I have no idea what I am doing. Was told to come to this thread. I have some cards. Dont know anything about them. Found them in my closet that havent been touched in at least 15 or more years. All in the cases. If they are worth anything I appreciate the help.

I know a majority of the cards are shadowless based on the age. If that helps.

Wait is that all of them or...? I see no shadowless ones there whatsoever.

Are they worth anything?

I found some old cards and I'm wondering are they worth anything?

Ok lol. Like I said I don't know what I'm talking about. Any idea on what any of them are worth? Haven't been touched or moved in over 15 years.

And yes that's all of them. At least all the holo ones I found.

Ok so ive had many cards and here's some that idk wat theyre worth but im pretty sure theyre rare


Sorry if theyre a little blurry i took them the best i could with an ipad camera :/
Thanks a lot it means a lot :)
Also if u cant list all the priced atm ill post it at a later date as well no rush and thanks again :)

Was digging out stuff to clean my house, found some pokemon cards. I would like to ask the prices of the following;

Jungle Clefable (Foil), Used

Aquapolis Slowking (Foil), Used

1st Edition Base Electrode with Jungle Misprint, Used

Base Shadowless Gyarados (Foil), Used

I should add; all cards are in English.

Your clefairy is worth around $2-4, the nidoqueen, dragonair, kanghaskhan, elekid, electabuzz, maybe the shedinja (i dont have that card so im not too sure) because of their conditions i'd say around $1.50-$2. A general rule is if there is a star in the bottom right corner or holographic (like cleafairy) then it is worth a bit more, the condition plays a huge part in the price of the card and since most of your cards have edgewear, the price will drop

Sorry for being such a downer, but thats the realistic price

Hi there. Great thread! I've dug up a bunch of old pocket monster cards from 1996 (roughly 50 base, fossil, jungle, Team Rocket, and Gym holos, 500 - 600 rare, uncommon total) and was curious on what's the best way to have you glance at the whole collection and point out some goodies as I can only imagine how difficult it must be to answer every single card posted. Can I attach a PDF with all the scanned sleeves?

Thanks,
Nate

Found old 1st edition pokemon cards

Hi There,

So when i was a kid i was huge into pokemon and bought a ton of those cards when they first came out. I remember back in the day i had all the holographic cards and what not.. think i traded them at some point for star wars cards (anyone know anything about SWTCG cards?). While digging around i found a box full of cards from that time period. I did a little research and most are what are consider "1st edition" and "shadowless", also have a huge stack that are just "shadowless" without the 1st edition stamp. Not sure what any of this really means but hoping someone can help me out a bit... attached are a few photos. Any value to these? i know there not the real sought after holo cards but maybe theirs something here. . Remove space in link to few photos.. thanks!

As I mentioned yesterday, I've compiled a PDF for your review. It would be totally awesome if you could answer a few questions for me.

1. Whats the overall value of the collection (Including POJO Price Guide)?
2. What are the rarest/most valuable cards?

Hey, I have a Farfetch'd from the base set with a number of 27/102

It is not first edition as far as I can tell.

It may be shadowless because it's HP is not as bold as the other base set cards and there is no shadow around the picture.

Now heres my problem, I can't tell if it is a true shadowless because at the bottom of it there is NO text except for it's number 27/102. it's missing all information on the illustrator, the nintendo dates and wizards date.

Is it possible it's an error card?

Thank you!

If it doesn't have any of that, the artist, the description and all that stuff, it's a fake, sorry...

I have a Gengar from stormfront, collectors number 18/100.
it is not first edition, or shadowless. It is a holo. The art in the box has foil over it and the border of the card is golden.

When I search the card I cam only find reverse holo.

Thanks in advance.

Would you mind attaching a picture of the card tp your next post in this thread? From how you've described it, it sounds like a fake.
