Growlithe — Base Set 2 42
Market price
TCGplayer · snapshot Sep 24, 2026| Market (US) | Listings low–high | Europe avg | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | $1.62 | $0.49 – $27.80 | €1.68 |
United States vs Europe
Same card, normal print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 18% 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 2026-09-23. 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 | €1.97 |
| Last 7 days | €1.74 |
| Last 30 days | €1.69 |
The 24-hour average has risen 17% against the 30-day average — €1.69 to €1.97. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.
About this card’s market
Asking prices run from $0.49 to $27.80. 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 $1.19, below the market price — that is the cheapest verified-condition copy sitting in their warehouse right now.
In Europe the card has been climbing: the 24-hour average is 17% above the 30-day one.
It sits 59th 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.
