Base Set 1st Editions in general are very rare; even the weakest, most common ones like Diglett & Ekans will cost you like $10-20, whereas the holo rares will go from $200-500, with Charizard going for $1,500-$2,000 nowadays. IIRC just an unopened 1st Edition Base Set booster pack goes for almost $1,00 nowadays.


da fuck, really? I have a lot of early set holos that are pretty much undamaged sitting in a card binder

Yeah, apparently when they did the 1st Edition print run they drastically underestimated the demand, and the packs were sold out within weeks; theres also the insane level of nostalgia people have for gen 1.

Keep in mind that Im only talking about 1st Editions here; Unlimited Base Set cards are nowhere near as valuable.
