Umbreon continues down with every sale, down 12% over the last month with listings starting another 13% below current market. Buying at these levels is bringing in significant risk, with sales as low as $1,059 and no solid floor in sight, even if market price reads $1,233

Charizard now has sales below $300 for the first time since March. After a significant downward move stemming from several sales in the $200s, expect market price to soon catch up to where sales are actually occurring. One of moderns flagship cards is nearing a major price level

Listings start at $277, about 10% under the $307 market price while sales cleared around $315 through last weekend, then settled near $298 this week before today's drop. One more sale in the $270s and the market price would begin to really struggle to stay afloat above $300

Two sales around $1,200 in the past week gave holders a bounce, but most others this month cleared around $1,155 or lower. Listings already sit under nearly all of them, so sellers keep chasing a buyer about once a day. A sale under $1,050 would mean a new low for the month

Mega Zeraora has had no shortage of buyers this month and yet continues its slide down to its $33 market price. After a run of sales at $25, it bounced straight back to the mid $30s. Even so, patient collectors have repeatedly been rewarded as low cost options continue to appear

Down 53% since late July, the overall market trend continues the thrash Pitch Black. Similar to other recent chases, continued runs at the lower ends of their ranges would point to the slide not being finished yet, with recent flat movement starting to look like a brief pause

Magikarp has gone quiet after dropping 20% this month, and it's settling in with most of its peers. Listings start right on the $84 market price, and anything priced at the slightest discount gets bought up fast, with the latest few sales already back above the market price today

The market price has sat flat for two weeks after coming off a high near $135 around release. Buying has picked up a little, and Monday's sales mostly cleared between $83 and $87, with a few down at $82. If today's $88 sales hold, the market price has room to nudge higher

Comparatively, the PKC ETB has been fighting off the overall market trend, down just 3% this month with listings and sales both holding around $300 even as the regular ETB keeps sagging. Given how desirable the 30th is, is the PKC ETB the shining light in a cloudy market?

30th fatigue looks to be setting in. Its ETB has bled 29% over the past month to a $129 market price, with some sales slipping into the $110s. With a market currently this fragile, can 2026’s most hyped set hold its sealed premium? Or will it give way to overall market trend?

Purchase volume has cooled from 40 sales a day in late September to around 10, but sellers have far fewer boxes to move than on the regular ETB. That thin supply may be what keeps $300 in place, though another run of sales near $262 like yesterday's would put that to the test

Volume has thinned out since the heavy days after release and into early October, and the price has drifted lower ever since. Listings now start at $127 and today's sales cluster at $125 and $130. Another run of sales at $119 would keep pushing downward, making $125 hard to hold

Misty's Psyduck slid 20% this month, with a volume surge showing up once it hit $46. This recent activity points to buyers picking a level they like instead of a short burst. Sales under $43 would indicate the spike is fading, but at its current price how much room is left?

Daily sales climbed from a handful in late September to double digits through October, and the latest bars on the TCGplayer three month chart sit among the tallest of that whole stretch. Volume is clearly rising, but with a fading market and heavy supply, it may not be enough

Mega Darkrai just had its busiest week of sales since release, and that was enough to soak up Saturday's dip to $125. Sales are back around $137 today and the cheapest listing sits around $135, so after a 26% slide this month, the price has real buyers underneath it for now

Volume was building while the price fell from around $190, so buyers alone were not enough to stop it. What changed is the market price has leveled off near $138, with most sales this weekend landing right there. This looks like a dip that is stalling, with a potential bottom in

Collectors who passed on Pikachu above $700 keep getting rewarded for waiting. Sales landed around $650 all week, sellers are listing even lower than that, and the $689 market price, down 28% this month, still hasn't finished the trip down to where buyers are actually paying

Pikachu sales were still around $725 last week, so this was a fast trip. Yesterday's $689 sale looks like one buyer, not a turn, after a week of copies clearing in the $640s. Another near $689 says buyers will pay up again, and one under $640 says sellers still control it
222
The release rush is over, and as it stands Sylveon has quit bleeding. After a 48% slide this month, listings start at $41, just under the $43 market price, with sales landing in between. Collectors hoping for another leg down are looking at a card currently priced where it trades

Most of the damage came in the first days of October, when the price fell from near $70 to the mid $40s. Since then it has gone sideways, with about 50 sales a day still clearing around $42, so buyers haven't gone anywhere. A sale under $41 would mean the slide has more room
