Water Energy — Base Set 2 130
Market price
TCGplayer · snapshot Aug 13, 2026| Market (US) | Listings low–high | Europe avg | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | $0.34 | $0.10 – $4.32 | €0.15 |
United States vs Europe
Same card, normal print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 49% cheaper 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 24 hours | €0.03 |
| Last 7 days | €0.07 |
| Last 30 days | €0.13 |
The 24-hour figure sits too far from the 30-day one to describe a month of trading, so we draw no conclusion from it. Cardmarket publishes averages but not how many copies they are averaged over, and we will not guess at the reason. The source figures are shown above without interpretation.
About this card’s market
Asking prices run from $0.10 to $4.32. A spread that wide says more about individual listings than about the card — the market price above is what copies actually sold for.
TCGplayer Direct has it at $0.16, below the market price — that is the cheapest verified-condition copy sitting in their warehouse right now.
It sits joint 118th of 122 priced cards in Base Set 2, in the cheaper half of the set.
It is a Common card, printed in 2000, illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi.
It is still legal in Standard, so tournament demand is part of the price.
