The higher the rarity and the smaller the print run, the more a card is worth on the market.

Collector tips

• Check condition (centering, corners, edges, surface): a near-perfect card can be worth far more once graded PSA 9 or 10.
• Within a set, the full-art, secret and alternate-art cards hold most of the value — prioritise those.
• Protect valuable cards with sleeves and toploaders to preserve their condition over time.
• Prices move constantly: track each card and your whole collection live with PixelBinder.
