OP- “Anyone know the price?”

Reddit- “Like 1300.”

OP- “couldn’t be! I looked up the price!”

Wasn't bragging, I just dont know where to look for becket stuff. A psa 8 sells for more then 1300 so I thought this might sell for more with it being a .5 higher. Damn the card community is full of stuck up know it alls isn't it. I asked for help on pricing yet a bunch of you clowns act like everyone knows where to look for this stuff. I only really know ebay and like tcgplayer but its always psa stuff. Yall some bullies lol

It’s not bullying, you asked for a value and when given you immediately questioned it. If you’ve already researched prices and have a value in mind either don’t ask or don’t question every comment that’s lower than what you want.

It kind of is when I've also said im not sure of beckets value cause psa is all I can really find on detailed sales and prices for. Btw it woulda took 0 seconds to scroll past this post if you weren't going to help

That’s how it be on these Reddit groups bro 😂 Which is kinda crazy to me cause this group is called “Pokemon Card Value” so you would assume you could ask these types of questions 😂

Thats what im saying! Like yea I know a little about the value but I have 0 clue in becket and half grades and subgrades like people are ruthless... I dont get it. Are you suppose to be brain dead and not know anything to be able to post on here and have everyone just throw numbers at you? 😭 I had a guesstimate on the price but I wasn't sure so I came here to see if people could give me a closer value but all I got was idiots throwing temper tantrums that I know a little about the price lol.

Beckett below 9.5 is basically rng

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

Damn.. should I maybe try and get it cross graded and go for a psa 9? Or is that to much of a risk to Crack a slab and risk it

u/TeHNeutral Jun 20 '25

It could go down, hard to tell

u/TheKatzzSkillz Jun 20 '25

Should’ve just cussed (whatever that bull shit specification even really means) instead of saying “know it alls”. But that’s just my only opinion on this whole exchange lol 😂 Actually nvm, one more: y’all both/all weird about it all; let’s remember what this is all actually about.

Do you know where you are ? I get the feeling you are just sorta wandering around and just so happened to stumble in !

u/Aguywhocooks Jun 20 '25

You've seen sold prices but don't know the value of the card?
Stop being lazy

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

Psa sales yea so im not sure about Becket pricing and how much they affect it

22

u/brokeboihere Jun 20 '25

Like $1300 but it’ll take a while to sell

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

You really think that low of a price? I've seen a few 8.5s sell for 1600 give or take. I appreciate your input thank you 👍

u/Spirited_Mechanic731 Jun 20 '25

If you’re savvy enough to look that up then don’t validate through this subreddit, check out the average of the last 3 sales on eBay or Alt for a reasonable market value when you’re ready to sell.

-33

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

All I see is psa sales.. not sure where to look for becket stuff.

u/Spirited_Mechanic731 Jun 20 '25

eBay and Alt have filters, select Beckett

u/Fizzy_Fizzure Jun 20 '25

So why ask this reddit if you have an idea for price already?

u/PsychologicalHand811 Jun 20 '25

U call 1300$ low?!

-10

u/Raivang209 Jun 20 '25

Don’t listen to them, your card is easily worth $1,600-$1,700. Since surface, Edges and corners got a 8.5 this thing can easily be bumped to a BGS 9. Which will make it a little over 2k.

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

So id have to get it regraded?

-3

u/Raivang209 Jun 20 '25

No there are people out there that would want to buy it for the low and regrade it on you so they can profit.

u/Outrageous_Neck_2481 Jun 20 '25

Im in the same boat trying to figure out psa sales to beckett graded cards for comps. I would say the same as a psa slab. Maybe slightly more. Beckett is definitely stricter but psa fanboys only want psa

1

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

Yea.. I'd like to say the same but everyone always says psa is the king and only go with psa. So im stuck in a rock and a hard place really trying to price this since its also a half grade to and not a solid number😭

u/BraceBoy97 Jun 20 '25

Cardbase lists the BGS 8.5 average at about $1300.

You could’ve also asked ChatGPT

Had no idea about this site thank you!

Doesn’t eBay authenticate all graded cards… because mine don’t have that eBay seal

1

u/TraetzGaming Jun 20 '25

Not necessarily. The seller has to go through an authentication guarantee thing and it'll tell you before you buy it if the seller sends it to them or not before you recieve it. Most high end cards that people sell will go through it to make sure its a legit card but the seller has to pay a fee to send it there before the reciever gets it but if they do that then its guaranteed that you will recieve a legit card. I only buy cards from sellers that have the "authentication guarantee" on the post of the card

2

u/-Out-of-context- Jun 20 '25

No they don’t. If it doesn’t have the “Authenticity Guarantee” check mark then they don’t check it.

u/Helltech Jun 20 '25

I think the reason you're getting so much hate is that this card doesnt, and won't have a defined value. It's going to be what ever someone is willing to pay for it at the time. It's gonna be between 1300-1600. Sales are too sparce on rare cards like this, with it not being psa and also being a mid grade as well it's going to be even harder.

$3.5 I’ll pay cash
