Market outlook
Declining Outlook 4/10
Post-release hype fade shown by -69.3% drop in October 2025 sales data, oversupply from product boxes and Japanese prints.
Next months. Continued softening to $50-80 raw NM in next 3-6 months as supply stabilizes
Long term. Stable low collector interest unless competitive play revival, potential floor at $40-60 in 1-3 years

Collector notes
Condition. Check for centering issues on Special Illustration Rare foil patterns, edge whitening from handling, surface scratches on holo stamping, and print lines on intricate artwork; common flaws include pouch area fingerprints and corner dings on raw copies.
Storage. Use semi-rigid top loaders with cardboard inserts for raw cards, store in cool dry environment away from sunlight to prevent foil oxidation, sleeve in double penny sleeves within binders or cases for long-term protection.
Authenticity. Verify set-specific numbering 182/132 and English/German text alignment, check holo pattern for consistent rainbow shift unique to SIR foils, inspect card stock thickness and weight against genuine pulls; fakes often have blurry artwork or incorrect font spacing, cross-reference with official images.
