Blastoise — Base Set 2 2
Market price
TCGplayer · snapshot Aug 13, 2026| Market (US) | Listings low–high | Europe avg | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Holo | $151 | $96.00 – $1,280 | €120 |
United States vs Europe
Same card, holo print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 8% 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 holo print.
| Window | Average sale |
|---|---|
| Last 24 hours | €20.00 |
| Last 7 days | €132 |
| Last 30 days | €93.91 |
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.
Note the weekly average of €132 sitting outside both the daily and the monthly figure. That happens when only a handful of copies change hands, and one sale drags the average with it. On a card this thinly traded, none of these three numbers is a price you can count on.
About this card’s market
Copies on sale run from $96.00 to $1,280 — a 13× spread that comes from condition, not from the card. Read the listing before you read the price.
TCGplayer Direct has it at $108, below the market price — that is the cheapest verified-condition copy sitting in their warehouse right now.
It sits 2nd of 122 priced cards in Base Set 2 — near the top of the set.
It is a Rare card, printed in 2000, illustrated by Ken Sugimori.
It has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
