Caterpie — Base Set 2 68
Market price
TCGplayer · snapshot Aug 13, 2026| Market (US) | Listings low–high | Europe avg | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | $0.97 | $0.18 – $18.90 | €0.61 |
United States vs Europe
Same card, normal print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 27% 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 | €0.89 |
| Last 7 days | €0.53 |
| Last 30 days | €0.59 |
The 24-hour average has risen 51% against the 30-day average — €0.59 to €0.89. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.
Note the weekly average of €0.53 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
Asking prices run from $0.18 to $18.90. 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 climbing: the 24-hour average is 51% above the 30-day one.
It sits 81st of 122 priced cards in Base Set 2.
It is a Common card, printed in 2000, illustrated by Ken Sugimori.
It has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
