PokéGym's New Pokemon TCG Price Guide

[PokePop]

PokéGym is expanding it's content once again and this time we're trying to fill a need that, in our opinion, hasn't been met ever before! There are lots of price guides out there, but they tend to focus on the Retail price of cards as reported by retailers. This leads to only the high end of the pricing market being represented. Most of the Gym members are smart shoppers and know where to get cards for significantly less than the prices retail shops in the mall would change; whether it be from online retailers that with competitive prices, online auction sites, or directly from other members. Therefore, we've decided to present a range of prices for each card, to reflect the different prices one would expect to pay or receive in different enviornments. From a low price you might get when buying or selling in bulk, to a medium price that you would expect to pay online or to a fellow collector/player, on up to the retail price that you would have to pay in a brick and mortar store. And, we've also added in a Trade Value to help make trading easier.

Another issue that we've had with available guides is incomplete or incorrect information about cards. Such as cards being listed that don't exist. Or hot cards priced incorrectly. Or important cards not being listed at all. Right now, we know we don't have a complete list of the specialty collectibles, but I think you'll find a lot of cards listed that you won't normally find. And as we move forward, we'll fill in the holes. Then, we'll start gathering data for a Japanese section.

And that brings us to what is going to make this Pokemon Price Guide the most accurate and usable guide of any out there: And that's you, our members! This is going to be an interactive Guide, with a dedicated forum on the Gym. If you think we're off on a price, or there has been a recent development (such as recently happened with Creator Packs), we want to know and we'll update our info and pricing based on that info. You'll be able to present evidence of sales transactions, trade transactions, and rarity info. Based on the feedback we receive, the Guide will be updated.

Just like every other part of the PokeGym, it will be you that will truly make this a resource for the whole community.

Special thanks to BJJ763, RainbowRichards, Spookees, and TheDarkTwins for entering the incredible mass of data that the Guide encompasses. Oh, and 'snore and I helped, too. :redface:

So, click the link to the Guide, check it out, and tell us what you think!

Trivia 2009 Pokemon Q3 At the 2009 Pokemon World Championships what new video game release was announced?

[Shellshock929]

Sweet! This is starting to look like the Pojo price guides, but good work to those who suggested it.

[rokman]

Just so you know, in the topic title, you accidently misspelled Guide as Gude... Im just letting you know, so the forum doesnt look tacky =X

[Gir]

I just used it for the first time and it was very helpful. Thanks for all those who contributed!

[ryanvergel]

You guys should put the no.1-3 trainers in there
It'd help with my query in this forum as well =P

[PokePop]

Anyone sell one of those?

[rokman]

Anyone sell one of those?Yamato sold his no. 1 last year... for a believed amount of 2,500 USD.

[jayh272416]

Can we have POP3 price guide too?

[PokePop]

Prices on that are spiked up too high since they're brand new.
You'd have to pay "first on your block" prices for those cards now. They'll settle down in a month or so.

[ting112]

[poke-geri]

Yamato sold his no. 1 last year... for a believed amount of 2,500 USD.

[Venusaur]

I heard there was another zero at the end of Yamato's sale price, 25,000.

[poke-geri]

I heard there was another zero at the end of Yamato's sale price, 25,000.

UFFFFF :biggrin: was it the Worlds No.1 ? Was it sold on ebay ?

[Venusaur]

Yep it was the No 1. Trainer from Worlds 04. I dont think it was sold on ebay, it was prolly either a private sale or on yahoo japan auctions, not sure.

[poke-geri]

Yep it was the No 1. Trainer from Worlds 04. I dont think it was sold on ebay, it was prolly either a private sale or on yahoo japan auctions, not sure.

UFFFFF again !! I thought that I missed that auction !!!

[TheDarkTwins]

I heard that he didnt sell it at all, I heard that it was in his binder at worlds, or something like that,
Drew

[poke-geri]

That's possible.....That card is very very rare, but the value isn't like 25'000 USD

[dabadman]

What is so different about it? Or is it just me and not seeing any difference?
Unless I misread the first post completely. =/

[Venusaur]

Cause this thread is almost 1 year old :tongue:

[dabadman]

Cause this thread is almost 1 year old :tongue:

Whoops! Didn't see that one coming >.>

[ting112]

For the Dragon Frontiers pricing thing, it was always there, but nothing ever shows up. Is my computer screwed up, or is it just not there. If it is just not there, then when are the prices going to be up? I really need to see the prices of some cards and I don't always want to ask in the forum for some reason.

[OLD_SCHOOL_PLAYER]

Its not your computer they just haven't put it up yet.

[LionheartEX]

where's the link to the guide, and whats a Garde ex d worth?

[Jedi_Amara]

Click on the Meowth in the banner.

The card is exactly what he describes it to be.

[shiftit]

[Jason]

We don't have that on PokeGym. We don't have all Japanese cards in our gallery.
But it is a known card and it does have a high price.

[Ancient Deoxys1997]

How much are Victory medals worth?

[mtvruins]

where is the price guide link?/

[PokePop]

where is the price guide link?/
....
Click on the Meowth in the banner.

[Clueless in Seattle]

So, click the link to the Guide, check it out, and tell us what you think!

I hate to have to expose myself to ridicule for being so clueless, but I can't figure out where the price guide link is.

Will in Seattle
a.k.a. "Clueless"

[PokePop]

Look up at the banner at the top of the page.
See the Meowth up there holding his very valuable cards?
Click on him.
That will take you to the intro page.
From there, the link into the guide is right in the middle and easy to see.

[Luxatos]

I notice there aren't any prices on cards past POP5/Crystal Guardians. Until it's updated, should that link be up there anymore? Or maybe some sort of notice that the prices might not be up-to-date?

[charmander rox]

We need updated prices!

[PokePop]

Do we have any volunteers to work as Price Guide contributors?

[TheDarkTwins]

Do we have any volunteers to work as Price Guide contributors?

Mike, I should have time during the week after Thanksgiving. If you send me thru my email the excel file and exactly what needs to be update (yes include it all). I will hopefully have it done within or less than a week or two.

LMK,
Drew

Some of the prices for the older cards (I just grazed through it, but took a look at the 1st Ed holos under Neo Discovery and it was painful) are REALLY far off. The mint 1st Ed Umbreon in my store just sold for $25 or $30 (can't recall which one) and wasn't listed for terribly long. When you price them, is it a "run an eBay auction and all the people that find it in 7 days determine the price" or something like the average price on eBay and other card websites?

We generally use the prices that things sell on ebay as a baseline, yes. That is our mid-range price.

It's possible that prices are coming up from when we first priced these items a few years ago.
That's a good thing.

[livinglax]

How is it that I bought a lv. x tin and the lv. x card alone is worth more than what I bought the tin for. There was also four packs of pokemon cards in the tin.

[PokePop]

You have the promo version of the card. That is only worth about $5.
The version of the Level X that is found in packs is the one worth more money.

[jaws_is_ra]

I was wondering were is the link to the guide I can not find it any were sorry if this been asked before

[PokePop]

The guide has gotten out of date and hasn't been updated for a while, so it's sleeping at the moment.

[pokemon99]

is the guide being updated at all? does anyone have any plans to update it?
i would prefer a guide than asking people all the time.

[PokePop]

We are lacking staff that can do the updates on a regular basis.

If anyone (suitable) is willing to volunteer...

[smpratte]

I would love to, well if I am suitable in your opinion, but would love to update the guide!

[richkid50000]

Same here. probably not suitable in your opinion but would love to help out the site.

[thelastgym]

wheres the link>?

[CardSeller]

Can someone please give me a direct link to the page? I don't see any meowths at the top of the page.

[EeveeLover]

I think the link was removed, as the information was quite outdated.

[waynegg]

I would be happy to help Scott update it and then stay on top of changes. Plus, there is something in there I would like to reference. It was excellent at least for reference purposes.

[Nobodys]

I'd help a little

[pokemonrocks777]

so is there going to be a new link

[deaded123]

I got so excited thinking that I had eventually found a price guide that was decent, working and usable... But It's obviously been taken down or something... Will it be back at any point because it seems to have been off for some time?

[PokePop]

took too much work to keep it updated.
