In early 2021, a PSA 10 TopSun Blue Back Charizard set a record at Goldin Auctions, selling for a staggering $481,200. At the time, it was the only PSA 10 copy on record — the ultimate grail.

Just a few months later, another PSA 10 example surfaced at PWCC Premier Auction. Instead of matching the hype, it hammered at only $192,000 — nearly a $300K difference between two cards of the same grade. 😳

📉 Why the gap?

January 2021 was peak Pokémon mania.

Early hype brought premium bids.

By spring, the market cooled and buyers pulled back.

The lesson? Even the rarest cards can swing wildly. A PSA 10 isn’t always a guaranteed price anchor — timing and market hype matter just as much.

🔥 Same card, same grade, two VERY different outcomes.

1 of 6 in VGA 95 (only 1 graded higher 95+) with the possibility to cross to a WATA 9.8 A++

The only SEALED promo screener of Shrek DVD I've seen. Unfortunately as a promo they damaged the UPC so it couldn't be sold. This is Shrek history !

With over a week left in Heritage’s Summer Platinum Night Auction, the only 2007-08 Upper Deck Exquisite Dual Logoman Autograph ever made featuring Michael Jordan & Kobe Bryant is rewriting the record books.

🏀 1-of-1 — the sole Jordan/Kobe Dual Logoman Autograph in existence. (Jordan had 8 Logoman pairings, Kobe had 11… but this is the only one with them together).

🏀 Graded PSA EX-MT 6 with bold, clean on-card signatures.

🏀 Showcases a Kobe game-used patriotic NBA Logoman patch & a gold NBA Logoman from Jordan’s 1996–97 championship season.

This card’s importance went through the roof after Kobe’s tragic passing in 2020, guaranteeing no other Jordan/Kobe Logoman could ever exist. It’s more than cardboard — it’s a piece of basketball history, forever connecting two Mount Rushmore legends of the game.

💰 Current Bid (w/ BP): $6,344,000

⏳ Time Remaining: 5 Days

What’s your guess — how high will it finish? 👀

What started as a fun Happy Meal promo spiraled out of control. 🍔⚡ Limited-edition Pokémon cards hidden inside Happy Meals in Japan sparked a frenzy — fans were buying up dozens at a time, ripping out the cards, and tossing the food. Mountains of untouched burgers and fries piled up while eBay filled with listings from scalpers hoping to cash in. 💳📈 The result? Widespread food waste, angry customers, and an early end to the promotion. McDonald’s had to pull the plug before it could catch ’em all. From Happy Meals to unhappy endings… this one left a bad taste.
