Hey everyone,
I used to play Pokémon, the card game, as a kid and recently went back to dig out my old cards from back then, and I think I might have stumbled onto something pretty special.
After getting it identified, it turns out this is the Umbreon H30/H32 Holo Rare from the Skyridge set (2003, e-Card series, English). It has the full holographic effect across the entire card including the artwork, border, and text.
A few questions:
How much is this roughly worth raw (ungraded)?
Is it worth getting graded (PSA/BGS), given the cost and wait time?
What's the best platform to sell this in Europe?eBay, Cardmarket, or something else?
Condition notes: the card has some very light whitening on the corners (visible under close inspection), otherwise the surface looks clean with no scratches. I'd estimate LP to LP+ range but happy to hear what you think from the photos.
I've seen PSA 8–10 sales going for hundreds to thousands of dollars, but I'm mainly curious about the raw value since I'm a student and not sure grading costs make sense for me right now.
For a clearer look at the holo effect, I’ve made a video: https://youtube.com/shorts/Xb5px58hdJA?is=g7jcmkD0od6zQln4
Any advice is appreciated! :)
