RE: The ''How much is a card worth?'' topic.
Well don't use T&T prices, as they are overvalued. Regardless, the error is very minor (only really noticeable in the retreat cost energy), so I don't think the value would change that much - maybe $1 more (or possibly even less).
You must have missed this
As for the CD Venusaur, PSA 10 and 9 cards go for like $20-$30, so you could probably get $20 if you're lucky, $15 if you want to sell it soon.
Use Ebay completed listings. That gets you as close to the true value of a card as possible. Let me know if you need help doing so

Alright, thanks. I thought Hydreigon was worth about the same as or more then a reg. Tornadus EX due to the playability, even though one's an EX and one's not.

RE: The ''How much is a card worth?'' topic.
So I really never got into the Pokemon TCG, preferring to only play the VGC and collecting YuGiOh! Cards
I really just want to start a few small collections around my favourite pokemon
What would be the best way to do this? Like how much would a set of all the Nidoking cards ever made cost? Would I maybe get a discount if I buy them all at once?
Or would I have have to try and buy them one by one?
I really want to buy all of the:
- Nidoking cards
- Scyther cards
- Kabutops cards
+ maybe some other random pokemon.. but I really want those three

Definitely.
Be careful buying from TnT though. They advertise their cards as NM but sometimes you may receive a card that's clearly seen some play. I would say 9 times out of 10, I haven't had a problem with TnT. The last time I bought a card off them, however, it had a ton of smudges on the Holofoil.
I would recommend eBay for more expensive cards.

Gamingetc.com also sells singles
@NidoJosh - I recommend using the sites above to find common singles (i.e. cards released in normal sets), but when it comes to finding promos or rare foreign cards, you should move to Ebay (or possibly the trading/selling/buying forums here), as, not only will you be able to find more, but you will get better deals.
P.S. If you are considering a Nidoking collection, and you do try and get all the Japanese versions, watch out for this bad boy. Giovanni's Nidoking seems to be a very hard card to find.
P.S.S. Use Bulbapedia to find lists of all (well, 99.999%) of the versions of cards (exclusive to English and Japanese for the most part). Just search the Pokemon name with TCG after it, and it'll give you a list of all the versions.
Here's an example for Nidoking: ~click~

RE: The ''How much is a card worth?'' topic.
Ok thank you very much for the advice!
Do you think it would be inadvisable for someone in Australia to buy it from them there?
Thank you very much for the tip
If that Nidoking is really hard to find and expensive.. not sure if I think it would be worth it aha. It looks brilliant though. If I can locate it, I'll try to get one

how much would Pikachu BW 115/114 be worth nowadays? (I know it was about $15 a year ago but that's well, a year ago)
