THANKS :D [/B][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall Posted March 9, 2002 Share Posted March 9, 2002 I believe it's only gone down a few dollars. Not much though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkmoon Posted March 10, 2002 Share Posted March 10, 2002 I think it's gone down alot more than just a little, afterall, their not as populare as they used to be, so not many people will want to buy it any more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] Well I'm not too sure on that one. In the "Official Pokemon TCG Value Handbook" it says that the card is worth just a little under than it's origianl price. But that book's about half a year old, so you could be right aswell. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted March 10, 2002 Share Posted March 10, 2002 [color=indigo]Are you talking about the Mew card that was given out at Pokémon the Movie 2000? The one that's holographic on both sides? I can't imagine that they were ever worth that much... Heck, I have three of them... They can't be [i]that[/i] rare.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much is a holo Charizard worth? I've got two of them (the original, not the rocket edition). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukazi Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 The mew cards sold at the movie were copies of the ultra-expensive double sided holo Mew...The card is still valued at over $100.00! Also, Used to, a Holo Charizard would be worth around $55.00, but lately, ive seen them selling for $18.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]I went to the movie on the first day it came out. My mom wouldn't let me go alone (and it's always nice to get a ride :D), so I got two of them, one for each ticket. Then, I was buying a few cards on eBay (the one that I really wanted was a promo, holographic Eevee), and I got one with those. If I can find someone to pay me $100.00, I'd definitely sell them!!! Any takers? :D My Pikachu World Collection binder (see attachment), are my most prized cards in my whole collection. That, and my three first edition, holographic, Fossil Set Legendary Birds. I don't know... I don't really like the Ancient Mew cards... If I could even get $25.00 for one, I think I'd take it![/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kei Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 The Double holofoil Mew in Japanese is still worth over a hundred dollars, I think, but the mass release one for Pokémon: The First Movie English version is only worth 1.00 (Non-mint) to 3.00 (Mint-Mint). Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 that mew card has gone down in value, I think it is worth about $80 now, possibly even less.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 [size=3] Wow! I thought that the price for the Mew card would be low! I have a few of them. [i]Goes and sells them for $100 bucks a piece to little stupid kids.[/i] I wish![/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 How come they never gave out Mew cards with the movie here? I mean, I hired out the movie, and they never gave me one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 [color=indigo]Did you go to one of the first showings? I went to it on the day it came out. When I went to the first movie, I went only a few days after it came out, and they didn't have any cards left (I really wanted one of the promo Pikachu cards that they were giving out, but I ended up having to buy one)... So I made sure to go on the first day, for the second movie.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 [color=green]Yeah man, I was one of the first people to get the movie! They said something like "come back tomorrow, and you can get your Holographic Mew card". So when we did, they said some technical stuff like "sorry, there's no record here that you've reserved a card"..... Man I wish I had that card. Though once I was so close to trading one of my 2 holographic Pinsirs. And another time, I nearly traded a holographic Ditto for one. Though both times they didn't work out.... :([/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikey Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 The Mew cards dropped and so did the game. I heard the Mew cards dropped to about $60.00, and I am just amazed. I am going to the Pokemon store around where we live and I am going to check *Goes over to store* Yep $60.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 [color=indigo]Okay, I'm going to have to see if I can get that much! If I can, I'll sell all three!!! $_$[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Char! Posted March 13, 2002 Author Share Posted March 13, 2002 Huh. Alright, $60 is still okay... I remember the good ol' days, back in the summers. I'd go to the 7-Mile Fair (Really, REALLY big outdoor and indoor rummage sale thing, it's grade) and buy a bunch of Pokémon cards. I wouldn't get packs, there's no thrill in that. You could get packs anywhere. Nope, for me I'd look for retail cards. There was no bigger a thrill for me to look through a small box and *gasp* find a, say, Golem or a Weepinbell. I didn't have much cards, or of a life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 [color=green]But it still dissapoints me when I think that I could've scored $100 from it.... Just think, it's only a piece a foil or something..... nothing like gold....[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the cards were first getting really popular, and a Charizard would sell for $100... Man, I wish I'd had mine then... Funny Story: One day I went to a comic book store to buy two Base Set Booster Packs, and the two rare cards that I [i]really[/i] wanted was a Charizard, and a Zapdos. Well, I get home and I open up the first pack. I look through the cards, and what do I find? A Charizard! After a minute of dancing around my room for joy, I opened up the second pack... Yep, you guessed it... I got a Zapdos... I couldn't believe it. Those were the two cards that I wanted most, and I just happened to get them! At the same time! I mean, what were the odds of that happening? Pretty low, since those were two of the rarest cards in the Base Set!

Char! Posted March 18, 2002 Author Share Posted March 18, 2002 I remember when a Charizard would sell for over $300. Too bad for us, they aren't as popular anymore. But just wait about 10 years, and collectors will spend loads of money for even the most common of cards! That's the way those things go... I can't wait!
