Snorlax ex

Market outlook

Declining Outlook 4/10

30-day -10.3% drop in raw NM prices, low sales volume, non-chase card in oversupplied 2025 set.

Next months. Continued soft prices $2-5 raw, graded holds minimal premium

Long term. Stabilizes as budget bulk, unlikely appreciation without reprints or promo hype

Collector notes

Condition. Check for centering issues on holo pattern, edge wear from thick stock, surface scratches on prismatic foil, print defects common in Double Rares like rainbow holo misalignment.

Storage. Use semi-rigid or magnetic holders designed for thick holo cards, store in cool dry place away from sunlight to prevent foil oxidation, top loaders for raw copies.

Authenticity. Verify holo pattern matches official rainbow prismatic effect, check font and numbering alignment via official Pokémon TCG database, scan QR code if present, avoid deals too good to be true as fakes mimic common Double Rares.
