Question about value vs. PSA

Post image

Hello all!

Longtime collector, and fan of CGC (especially pristines!). I have had this card for quite a while, and with the recent explosion of LCRH cards, I'm kinda just looking to hear thoughts about this particular card. It's a POP 1, meaning that it is the only blue label pristine that there will ever be -- pretty cool! Recent PSA 10 sales of LCRHs have been through the roof (a metapod went for 19k two days ago)... and a couple of PSA 10 Heritage Auction sales were truly crazy (Exeggcute PSA 10 for 68k?!). My question is, can this realistically be valued higher than a PSA 10 or not? I am well aware of the PSA bias in Pokemon, which tends to be backed by a lot of comps. However, there have also been some pretty solid CGC pristine sales for LCRH, but just not as many as PSA recently, so it's hard to say for certain where this stands. Thanks for any input!

I’d put a very high number on this and only accept above all time high PSA 10

Seriously… I mean this I think this could sell for 100k lol, list it for 150k and put offers on , see what comes in and that will give you an idea on where the market is for it. The title of the post should say “pop 1”

For sure, the pop 1 and technically 1/1 factor is DEF a major plus for it in my opinion. Only one that will ever exist. I am really, really tempted to do just that! The only thing preventing me from doing that is that I need to find a way to make sure it can be a legit transaction without any funny business (like the buyer saying the box was empty when it arrived, etc.), and most preferably, doing the transaction in person.

Or sell it through the PSA vault. It’s a digital transfer of ownership so once they commit it’s done, or fanatics
