[–]Dirge37 22 points23 points ago

Considering how much the card costs.. I'll definitely take the card over £16

[–]HyzerFlip 6 points7 points ago

That's exactly what I thought. I love pokemon but that card would just get ruined or lost in my possession... Fortunately I know a whole subreddit full of trainers that would love to buy one...

[–]nickasummers 2 points3 points ago

Didn't know it was legitimately worth anything. Just looked it up. I am almost certain I have one upstairs.

[–]omgpro 4 points5 points ago

1st edition? The normal holographic ones are only worth 20 bucks at most.

[–]PinkysAvenger 3 points4 points ago

never mind immediately after 51,000 people got one too. it'd flood the market and the price would bottom out so fast.

[–]nickasummers 0 points1 point ago

I hadn't looked at it in a while, but I was pretty sure it was a first edition. Sadly no, must have been thinking of another card. Ah well.

[–]goldenguyz 0 points1 point ago

It's more like £12.

[–]Smuglord -1 points0 points ago

Oh, the poor poor pound.

[–]goldenguyz 1 point2 points ago

...That's good for the pound.

[–]Sir_T-Bagalot 36 points37 points ago

Repost. This has been posted twice in the past two weeks.

[–]Z-Ninja 9 points10 points ago

Every time I see someone reposted this, I get the sudden urge to scream "GO AWAY!" Haven't done it yet.

[–]KevinLaro 1 point2 points ago

dude i would take the 20$ now a 1st ed charizard go for 30$ on ebay ... get the 20$ you have no trouble selling a card that doesnt seem to sell that much

[–]serenne 5 points6 points ago

1st edition holographic Charizard in mint condition goes for hundreds of dollars on ebay. You may be confusing them with either non-holographic cards, non-first edition, or ones in poor quality.

It's still the rarest mass-produced Pokemon Card ever.

[–]Geige 0 points1 point ago

Highest I've seen recently was $400 mint condition, first edition. Still expensive. Still one sitting in a hard case on my shelf along with mint 1st ed Blastoise and Venusaur.

[–]Tad198 1 point2 points ago

But why would you sell it?

[–]KevinLaro 1 point2 points ago

i wouldn't but ... damn you've got a point here

[–]adanceparty 0 points1 point ago

First of all that is not true. Second if you know the charizard card had 10 dollars more value why wouldn't you want the 30 dollar value. Here is an example http://www.ebay.com/itm/POKEMON-CHARIZARD-1ST-EDITION-BASE-SET-SHADOWLESS-ROOKIE-CARD-RC-BGS-BCCG-7-/300756229204?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item460677dc54#ht_500wt_1414 it has 24 bids and is going for over 200 dollars. If you can get 1st edition holo charizards for 30 dollars buy them in bulk and send all of them my way.

[–]KevinLaro 0 points1 point ago

well i only saw 20-30 $ charizzard on about 20 minutes of browsing ebay, sorry dude i might have been wrong

[–]Anshin 0 points1 point ago

This guy probably didn't see it. It says the date is 8/10, so he probably saw this himself.

[–]Sir_T-Bagalot 0 points1 point ago

I don't mean direct repost, I mean the content. I've seen this same question posted in the past concerning $20 or a Charizard card.

[–]Girolmao -1 points0 points ago

We should seriously get a better filter.

[–]strifeblood 14 points15 points ago

I hate these posts. Not so much that it's been reposted, but it's always just OP saying something along the lines of, "Of course the better answer is the Pokemon related answer" or "What? The answer that isn't the Pokemon question? WHAT IS WRONG WITH HUMANITY R/POKEMON?! Karma please!"

[–]pgan91 1 point2 points ago

Ehh... it's actually more economically viable to take the charizard. A near mint, graded First Edition charizard is worth well over 20 dollars.

[–]infernoruby 6 points7 points ago

This exact image was posted not a week ago

[–]Sandi315[S] -1 points0 points ago

Exact? I doubt the person has the same exact status bar as me. But I probably took a similar image. I found this sub like 2 days ago...

Edit: Auto correct

[–]GoodMorningWood 3 points4 points ago

Who the fuck upvotes this shit? I'm fine with reposts but not when they are a week apart....

[–]w0158538 0 points1 point ago

I traded a holo Charizard to my friend when they first came out for something stupid. Its not in mint condition but its in pretty good condition and every few months hes like "oh hey remember when you traded me this"...

[–]kylethemachine 1 point2 points ago

I have two of these charizards I will sell if anyone is interested! Also have og venasaur and blastoise

[–]jay501 0 points1 point ago

Ill give you Ten bucks for all three

[–]kylethemachine 3 points4 points ago

Pawn shop guy!?

[–]PureLinsanity2 0 points1 point ago

Could someone please enlighten me as to what app this is?

[–]davedwtho 1 point2 points ago

It kinda says YouRather at the top of the screen so I'm gonna use my deductive reasoning skills to determine that the app is called "You Rather".

[–]PureLinsanity2 0 points1 point ago

Why thank you sir, i guess im not smart enough to figure these things out on my own.

[–]BaconBoob 1 point2 points ago

http://yourather.com/

[–]slamincham23 1 point2 points ago

What is this picture from?

[–]JacobDeLoach 0 points1 point ago

You Rather, it's a game where you choose one of two things, of which you would rather do

[–]slamincham23 0 points1 point ago

Is it an app?

[–]JacobDeLoach 0 points1 point ago

I know there is an app for the iPhone, and iDevices, not sure about other smart phones. This screenshot is from a website though, I bet if you were to google, "You Rather game" it would come up somewhere along there

[–]MKSLAYER97 0 points1 point ago

facepalm

[–]dvp416 -1 points0 points ago

You know what else is a no brainer? THIS IS A REPOST

[–]bronzeflame 0 points1 point ago

This is actually stupid. If this were trying to show that the card was being sold for $20, the top and bottom percentages would both be 50%, a one to one ratio. This picture is NOT a no brainer because you can't conclude anything from it.

[–]adanceparty 0 points1 point ago

It is a no brainer the card sells for 200 USD easily. 20 USD is just 20 USD. Even if you don't like pokemon 200 USD over 20 USD.

[–]DisRuptive1 0 points1 point ago

I don't play Pokemon but I'd still take the card based on its worth.

[–]avak8904 -1 points0 points ago

Oh look, this post again...

[–]Lonely_child15 0 points1 point ago

Ok, i've seen posts like this everywhere, what website/app is this?

[–]BradOShizno 0 points1 point ago

where do i get this app??

[–]IKillGrammarNazis 0 points1 point ago

Ahh my favourite Pokemon!

[–]adanceparty 0 points1 point ago

That depends is it shadowless or not? First edition holographic adds a lot but I wanna see that shadowless card. Jk though I would obvs take the charizard.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]anon_writ 4 points5 points ago

But the card is worth more than 20 bucks.

[–]IstheCakeReallyaLie -1 points0 points ago

Really? Just shows that we need entry hazards in the TGC.
