Help

Hey everyone im new here just started today but i am a collector with many rare cards and i'd like to noe how much the best cd collection goes for?

 

[Tailow_r.a]

Are my cards worth anything?

Hey, I've been a member for... wow years now. I haven't been very active, I've been rather busy. But I found the site in my favorites today and figured I'd drop by. I have a pressing question about some of my cards. I've been a Pokemon card collector all my life. I have to have close to 500 cards - new and old. I picked the ones out of my collection I figured might be worth something, in hopes someone will be able to tell me for sure.

I scanned 18 cards. Most are holofoil and in mint condition. I have never battled with them, I just love collecting them!
I posted what condition they were all in, and from what set they were from in hopes to ease things a little:

Light Dewgong - Neo Destiny [almost-mint]

Vaporeon (Holofoil) - Jungle [mint]
Nidoqueen (holofoil) - Jungle [mint]

Charizard, Ninetales, Zapdoes (holofoil) - Base Set [mint]
Blastoise, Machamp (holofoil) - Base Set [poor - they were put through the wash, but they still look great]
Arcanine - Base Set [mint]

Muk, Aerodactyl (holofoil) - Fossil (almost-mint)
Gengar - Fossil [mint]

Gengar (holofoil) - Ex Legand Maker [mint]

Feraligatr (holofoil/reverse holofoil) - EX Dragon Frontiers

Nidoran-male - Japanese (?) [MINT- I dont not know much about this card...]

Gyarados (holofoil) - Stormfront [mint]

Pidgeot, Fearow (holofoil) - EX Fire Red & Leaf Green [mint]

Tailow_r.a, if you wish to have your other cards priced to check their worth, you can do so right in this thread. I merged your earlier thread with your cards here.

Depends on which cards/complete card sets you have, and their condition.


@Tailow_r.a: The prices for your cards are in bold inside your quote.

Thank you for responding! And I apologize about puting it in the wrong place, I did not see this thread. :nervous:

And thanks for the estimates! The only reason I posted them was because I was always told that "they'd be worth something one day", hahaha. So it was merely out of curiosity, I don't think I'll ever give my collection away. It's been a life-long guilty pleasure of mine.

I have a flying pikachu from the rising rivals, and I was just wondering how much it was worth.

It appears to be worth $5-$6 at the moment.

 

[Iceshadow3317]

I have a Shiny Vulpix from one of the HG/SS card sets. How much would it be?

 

[donavannj]

I have a Shiny Vulpix from one of the HG/SS card sets. How much would it be?

$0.50 at most. And that's being generous.

 

[Iceshadow3317]

Ok. Thanks. I seen it on ebay for 10 dollars. Btw it is a rare reverse holo.

 

[donavannj]

Are you sure that's not from one of the Platinum block sets like Plat. Areceus or Plat. Rising rivals that you're seeing on ebay? One of those sets had a vulpix of that rarity, though I'm not sure which platinum block set it was in. None of the HGsS sets have a vulpix any rarer than a common. Could you post a pic of the vulpix?

 

[pmarckoue]

There's a Shining Vulpix in the Platinum Set. Just Platinum, not Rising Rivals, or any of those.

Ah, that was the set. And it's also the one that's going for $10.

 

[pmarckoue]

Shining Tyranitar
Shining Noctowl
Shining Celebi
Shining Steelix
Shining Torchic
Shining Latias
Shining Latios
Shining Rayquaza
Shining Raikou
Shining Suicune
Shining Metagross

Shining Kyogre
Shining Drifloon
Shining Duskull
Shining Voltorb
Shining Lotad
Shining Swablu
Shining Relicanth
Shining Milotic
Shining Yanma
Shining Shinx
Shining Ponyta
and Shining Bagon

I hope that wasn't too much.

Yes. Sorry that I did not get back sooner. Give me a few minutes. Maybe I can find a pic.

It may be a Plat. I got from Shiny Rikou Tin and didn't notice it was shiny till I threw the empty packs away.

Here it is

Yes, that is the Platinum special foil, and that goes for around $10 right now.

Diglett: I see it going for $20 on eBay, but that's in Near Mint condition, and I doubt that they'll actually get an offer on that. Probably $5 at most is closer to what you'd get in Near Mint condition.

Mewtwo: $10-$15, Near Mint.

As for Bulbasaur and Kakuna, I'd say at most $5, though there are no sales to go by on eBay at the moment.

Holofoil or non-holofoil version? Makes a difference in price, though I can't find any PSA graded Articuno cards on eBay right now.
