Trading cards: what they're worth
Are my old Pokémon cards worth anything?
Pokémon and sports cards, raw (ungraded) unless the title says graded. Each range is priced from recent eBay sales and current listings. 20 items.
What moves the price
- Raw vs. graded: a PSA or BGS graded card is a different market from the same card raw. These prices are for raw cards unless the title says graded.
- Condition is most of the price. Look at the corners, the edges, the surface (scratches, print lines) and how well the picture is centered.
- Edition and print run matter: 1st Edition, Shadowless and Unlimited copies of the same Pokémon card sell for very different amounts. Check the symbols on the card.
- Popular cards are faked. Compare the font, the colors and the card stock with a known real one, and be careful with prices that look too good.
