Value drivers

What makes Dark Persian valuable

  • The Shin-ichi Yoshida artwork gives Dark Persian appeal beyond pure playability.
  • As a Colorless-type Pokémon card, Dark Persian is sought by players and collectors alike.
  • Vintage (2002) print runs are fixed and finite, and sealed product for this era is scarce — a structural support for long-term value.
  • At Rare rarity, Dark Persian is widely available — its value comes from playability and condition.
  • A $37.63 card with steady supply status keeps buyer competition steady.
Buying notes

Buying & selling Dark Persian

  • If you are buying to resell, model marketplace fees first — the $37.63 value is pre-fee, and the seller-fee calculator shows the net take-home per platform.
  • Check sold listings rather than asking prices — the Holofoil market of $37.63 reflects actual transactions on TCGplayer.
  • Centring and surface condition matter most on Rare cards; a clean copy of Dark Persian can realise well above the $28.54 low end.
  • Because it is a Pokémon card, Dark Persian has both collector and player demand — a broader buyer pool than purely collectible cards.
  • Legendary Collection was released in 2002; sealed product from this era is limited, so raw singles appreciate with collector demand.
