United States vs Europe
Same card, normal print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 49% more expensive than the US for this print. Before acting on that, count shipping across the Atlantic, customs on the way in, and the risk of a card travelling in an envelope.
Converted at the European Central Bank reference rate for 2026-08-12. Currency moves on its own — the gap shown here is the gap on that date.
Last 30 days
Cardmarket rolling averages for the normal print.
| Window | Average sale |

| Last 30 days | €1.46 |
The 24-hour average has fallen 59% against the 30-day average — €1.46 to €0.60. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.
About this card’s market
Asking prices run from $0.48 to $18.18. A spread that wide says more about individual listings than about the card — the market price above is what copies actually sold for.
In Europe the card has been sliding: the 24-hour average is 59% below the 30-day one.
It sits joint 70th of 122 priced cards in Base Set 2.
It is a Uncommon card, printed in 2000, illustrated by Ken Sugimori.
It has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
