Kakuna — Base Set 33
Market price
TCGplayer · snapshot Sep 24, 2026| Market (US) | Listings low–high | Europe avg | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | $1.74 | $0.37 – $35.40 | €1.97 |
United States vs Europe
Same card, normal print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 29% 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 | €1.72 |
| Last 7 days | €1.46 |
| Last 30 days | €1.66 |
The 24-hour average has risen 4% against the 30-day average — €1.66 to €1.72. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.
Note the weekly average of €1.46 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 $0.37 to $35.40. 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 $0.97, 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 4% above the 30-day one.
It sits 59th of 101 priced cards in Base Set.
It is a Uncommon card, printed in 1999, illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi.
It has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
