Nidoking Frequently Asked Questions

Because the print runs are priced separately. The 1st Edition printing trades at $349.96 against $41.26 for the Unlimited, a difference of 8.5x for the same artwork and the same collector number.

The cheapest CGC 9 listed is $2,000, which is 5.7x the raw market price of $349.96. That is from 1 listing, so treat it as one seller's ask rather than a market rate.
