TCGplayer · snapshot Sep 24, 2026| Market (US) | Listings low–high | Europe avg | |

United States vs Europe
Same card, normal print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 52% 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 | €0.99 |
| Last 7 days | €0.79 |
| Last 30 days | €0.84 |
The 24-hour average has risen 18% against the 30-day average — €0.84 to €0.99. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.
About this card’s market
Asking prices run from $0.25 to $19.92. 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 18% above the 30-day one.
It sits 105th 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 has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
