Pokémon Card Market Experiences Price Declines Due to Oversupply
What happened
The market for the 30th Celebration trading-card set is experiencing price declines, leading to losses for scalpers who bought in expecting high returns. The set featured generous pull rates, making highly coveted cards easier to find and flooding the resale market. For example, a Futuristic Rare Mew ex card listed for over $3,000 before the set was available has since been seen listed for around $120 and struggling to sell for more than $100.
