Pokemon Trading Card Game

Buddy found this in a stack of cards from when he was a kid.

He does not collect at all, this was just in a stack of cards he was looking up because he knows they can be valuable. Please GOD tell me it’s real.

    Why? Why on earth would that possibly be worth that much money? What does it do? Does it solve complex math equations? Does it perform cpr on someone having a heart attack? Does it run into burning buildings to save babies? Does it risk being shot to bring bad guys to justice? No none of that? So make it make sense. How is the federal minimum wage $7.00 an hour but someone could spend that kind of money on a piece of cardboard that does less than nothing? Make it make sense somebody please tell me how this world is broken and delusional that things like this can actually occur and be are oblivious to how wrong it is! Please anyone I gotta figure out where the world went so horribly wrong.

    Is the back top right corner damaged? Can’t tell from the pic. Corner looks bent.

    I don’t normally condone grading with the state of the hobby, BUT GET THAT GODDAMN THING GRADED. If you’re not all that into the hobby, even better, you probably just made fifteen grand. That thing is NEVER in that good of condition when found in childhood collections.

  6. this is one of the rarest Gold Star you can have and it’s in an absolutely insane condition. Get it graded and buy a new car with it

    I see some small edge whitening. Likely closer to a 9, but still, crazy card.

    Tell him it’s the equivalent of a McDonald’s Happy Meal card and trade him some magic beans for it.

    Net profit: $18000

    The last ungraded rayquaza that sold for 3k had a huge rip on it. This looks like in wayyyy better condition, good job!

    I sold my heavily damaged one like 5 years ago for $500

    Alright everyone, appreciate the responses. We’re taking it to a friend who owns a card shop and will 100% make sure it’s real and get us set up with what we need to get it graded as I have never had my cards graded before. Once he gets it back with a grade I won’t keep you guys hanging, I’ll post an update.

  14. Haha I love this it’s just funny that when I was a kid these weren’t even a thing yet. Good for him

    Just want to temper you/your friends expectations because apparently Reddit is completely blind and I don’t want you guys to be disappointed. There’s no way this is getting more than a PSA 6. And I’d probably guess a 4/5 but it’s hard to tell for sure with 2 photos. But it definitely ain’t getting an 8 or 9 like some people are saying though. Congrats to your friend either way, insane find!
