What makes Gengar valuable

  • Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card, which adds appeal for artist-focused collectors.
  • Gengar is a Rare, so condition and the specific print variant matter more than raw rarity.
  • Gengar is a Psychic card with 110 HP, so demand comes from both collectors and players.
  • Classic-era cards like Gengar (2007) are out of print, so condition drives differentiation.
  • At $364.49 it is liquid enough to sell on major marketplaces, and its rarely listed status means buyers compete for clean copies.
Buying notes

Buying & selling Gengar

  • Check sold listings rather than asking prices — the Reverse Holofoil market of $364.49 reflects actual transactions on TCGplayer.
  • For Gengar, confirm the exact print variant before buying: Reverse Holofoil, Normal prices differ, and listings often mix them.
  • Centring and surface condition matter most on Rare cards; a clean copy of Gengar can realise well above the $178.50 low end.
  • Diamond & Pearl was released in 2007; sealed product from this era is limited, so raw singles appreciate with collector demand.
  • If you are buying to resell, model marketplace fees first — the $364.49 value is pre-fee, and the seller-fee calculator shows the net take-home per platform.
