What the auction houses change. Fanatics Weekly is a real second market for this card, and it prices a hair under eBay. This week: 3 PSA 10s at Fanatics ($930 middle) against 22 on eBay ($1,030). Since May, Fanatics has sold a PSA 10 almost every week: $1,350 to $1,560 in June, $1,110 to $1,260 in July, $990 to $1,020 in August, $990 in September. Fanatics also moved the oddities: a BGS 10 Pristine for $11,100 (Sep 6) and CGC 10 Pristines at $930 to $990. eBay is where the raw copies and the volume are. Sell a 10 on either; there is no premium to chase.

Every Destined Rivals SIR PSA 10 sold at the houses in the last two weeks. Mewtwo is the set at 2.3× the next card. All three drifted lower week over week; the whole set is cooling together, which says this is a Pokémon-wide tide and not a Mewtwo problem.

Every angle

The Case For and Against

FOR
Perfect liquidity: 1,095 sales in 90 days. You can buy or sell at any hour at a price everyone knows
The chase card of a popular set, at 2.5× the next card in it. Mewtwo and Team Rocket is a permanent Pokémon story
Cheap to grade and quick to sell: a $40 fee, a 57% gem rate, and a PSA 10 that sells four times a day
Sliding, not crashing: down 5% to 10% a month since May, on steady volume. Pullbacks this orderly usually end
AGAINST
16,758 PSA 10s and climbing. The set is in print. Supply is unlimited for the foreseeable future
Down every month since May on eBay and at the houses. Nobody knows where the floor is; last summer it was $1,000
A 9 is dead money: $410 against $415 raw. 43% of submissions come back that way
The whole set is cooling together (Garchomp and Ho-Oh SIRs slid too). This is a Pokémon-wide tide, and tides go out
THE VERDICT

Holding a clean raw copy? Grade it. A $40 fee for a 57% shot at $1,025; the miss gives you back a card worth what you started with. Holding a 10? Sell whenever you like; it clears at $1,025 today, and the trend says today beats next month. Buying a 10? $950 to $1,050, this week, not a dollar of July's price. Buying a 9? Only at raw money. This is a card you trade, not a card you hold: the pop is 16,758 tens and growing.
