Buying notes

Buying & selling Parasect

  • Centring and surface condition matter most on Rare cards; a clean copy of Parasect can realise well above the $24.99 low end.
  • If you are buying to resell, model marketplace fees first — the $44.49 value is pre-fee, and the seller-fee calculator shows the net take-home per platform.
  • Track the Cardmarket 7- and 30-day averages (€3.71 and €4.87) to time entries and exits.
  • For Parasect, confirm the exact print variant before buying: Reverse Holofoil, Normal prices differ, and listings often mix them.
