Team Rocket's Meowth (1999) Meowth's Party CD Pokemon Card ~ Pop 3 ~ Rare No.052

Description: This non-holo Team Rocket Meowth is from the 1999 Japanese Meowth's Party CD Promo. This card has been professionally graded by Certified Guaranty Company (CGC) and has received a very high score of NM/Mint 8. The card number is 052. This card showcases Kunihiko Yuyoma's award worthy artwork. Distributed by Wizards of the Coast, this card is sure to continue increasing in value year after year! With fewer cards made in the Japanese language, and sets being released so much earlier than the English language sets, this series should be worth quite a bit more than the English version. At this time it is not, but that could change fairly rapidly when people start to realize how much rarer this set is than it's English counterpart! It should also be mentioned that the Japanese card stock was a higher grade than it's English counterpart, with centering and overall quality of the printing being considered to be much better. The practice of always pricing a card by the last few sold on eBay will only cause the value of Pokémon cards to continue dropping. There is no way the values can ever move up using that flawed formula! The best way to increase the value of the cards in our hobby is to price our cards according to rarity and availability. It has been over 22-25 years since WOTC era cards were produced. The modern Pokémon cards are distributed at a much higher volume because distributors are cracking open cases and selling individual cards on eBay and TCG marketplace, as well as selling to their retailers. The modern cards will never be as valuable as the vintage WOTC era cards because of the double production needed to supply distributors, retailers, and individuals like you!
