Europe is 49% 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.

Last 30 days

Cardmarket rolling averages for the reverse holo print.

WindowAverage sale
Last 24 hours€17.98
Last 7 days€31.94
Last 30 days€23.17

The 24-hour average has fallen 22% against the 30-day average — €23.17 to €17.98. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.

Note the weekly average of €31.94 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.

It is a Rare card, printed in 2002, illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno.
