Um, depends on the card. And that's not a shit-ton. I've got a box of about 2,000 Pokemon cards, as well as a drawer of at least 1000+ MtG cards.

There's quite a few rare cards like the first edition of Charizards, if they're shiny. But honestly, MtG cards sell for a lot more, namely because there's quite a few one of a kind or limited circulation cards from tournaments.



That card, depending on the quality of it, can sell from $700 to $20,000. No joke.

Anyway, on topic, Ebay is usually a good place to find out the price of rare Pokemon cards.

EDIT: And oh yeah, that's a good deal. I'd take that deal, since I've got tons of Pokemon cards I never use and dearly want a PSP

 

some cards sell US$100 to a thousand depending on the card. so if you can list them or give us an idea on what your cards, we might tell their prices.

I got a magazine that tells the prices of each card though it's limited to the fossils and earlier than that.

I would offer you anything right now for those cards if it interest me but since i no longer collect, I'll keep my offers to you.

since your "friend" is offering you his psp and some things, I would ask you if you're interested on pokemon cards. if no, get his PSP. that's a simple question.

MtG has no use to me but to my brothers so I can just throw away any MtG he gives me. This is just an example on your situation.

Pokemon Cards are expensive if the card is right so think carefully

PS: Havent seen the links. I'll see them myself and edit my post

UPDATE:

I dont know what that person has drunk but to me he's sure a collector. movie promo are expensive (correct me) so I would definitely sell it at a higher price. same goes to everything rare from you.

 

tbh I'd take that offer and I have a PSP working already XD

and I'd take that PSP and maybe my DSL and get a DSi xD

 

Hell, my younger brother got a Shining Raichu once, 3-star rarity, but stupidly traded it off for the 2nd edition holofoil Blastoise that I'm selling.

 

did i mentioned "I used to have a magazine" before we were flooded here?

I'll look at it again since I didnt cleaned our house since we returned home.

also, take note that the longer the cards are alive, the more expensive it is so the prices should be updated. The prices are also SRP on retailers but not sure about it being pre-owned.

I remember a US$200 price tag on one of the base cards in my magazine. The magazine is pokemon beckett collection mar. 2002 volume 4 number 3 issue 31

UPDATE:
the prices are in fact, as confirmed, SRP. ()which are 5-40 US$ with 1st edtion charizard as $200 as of 2002. today is 2009 so it's definitely expensive

But as a collector, I would definitely will trade something like a PSP or a Wii for those cards.

 

You mean this one

do you think anyone would actually buy it?

 

Yeah. From my small bit of research, Pokemon cards are pretty much shit now.

It's like baseball cards. They used to be really popular (and expensive) but nowadays aren't so much. Granted, baseball cards can probably still sell for thousands, but that's because they're baseball cards. The Pokemon TCG was a spinoff to a series that was getting spinoffs left and right to suck in their huge (and temporary) audience. The TCG was actually really damn fun, though. It just hasn't had enough time to really ferment into collector material and doesn't have as many rares. With Magic, they produce a lot of limited edition cards that they give out at tournaments as well as having 20 years of the game behind it. With that, it has a huge audience (since it is the most popular collectible card game ever), tons of rare cards, and a lot of history.

Still, if you have like 10 rare cards for Pokemon, that's still like $70-$100, depending on the cards.

 

We have a store in New Zealand called Vagabonds, And they sell figurines and such, and shit for card games, and they offered my Brother 150$ for a holigraphic Charizard card, So i mean... 150$ for something he brought for about 10$ Sweet deal

 

I'll never understand cards. I mean, cards for the price of a brand new plasma TV? or a car?

Would you like a car, or this ultra-rare shiny Pikac-

Car please.

 

Dont trade for electronics just sell them for cash your gonna get way more
