I scored pretty big today! I went to my City Championships, and the TO's husband, the judge was selling some cards. So, I snatched up a few good deals, nothing spectacular for the moment. Then I looked some more and noticed a shadowless Charizard from the Base Set! Sweet! Then I kept looking and noticed a second shadowless Charizard... Next I noticed that both were 1st Edition and completely authentic! WOW! So I asked the price, and he said $10 since they weren't mint.... WAAAHAAH! Then I buy both in a heartbeat and move along. :biggrin: Later I come back and see a 1st Base Set Blastoise in there for $8. I later buy that too since it sounds like a good price.
So how much can I sell these things for on eBay?
One of the Charizards is in poor condition like it was played without sleeves for a while. I'm thinking about just saving that one for myself since it still cool. It has silver scratches on the front like a lot of old cards, and the back is not very shiny.
The second Charizard is in much better condition. A little bit of whitening on each border on the back, nothing major. The front is in good condition with only the tiniest little imperfections.
The Blastoise is nearly flawless on the front. The back is great with only one small region with whitening, and the other parts great other than some regular marks that come from picking the card up off of a flat surface.
So how much can I get for these things?
x1 Poor-Fair 1st Edition Charizard Base Set
x1 Good-Near Mint 1st Edition Charizard Base Set
x1 Near Mint 1st Edition Blastoise Base Set
It is hard for me to figure this out since there are such few things to compare with. But, I figured $10 for Charizards like that was no gamble at all. Thanks!
