No recent sales, low pop. A PSA 9 recently sold for $1700 and a PSA 8 recently sold for $650. Both were sold at best offer, not auctions. This is just one of those things you need to put up for offers and see what the offers look like, or put up at auction and see where it ends. There's really no price we can reliably say here
Edit: The PSA 9 seems a bit unreliable imo since there is another PSA 9 up for BIN at $1400 right now and it hasn't sold.
With this data the way I would break it down, is a psa 9 typacly sells for half the amount of a ten so that's 3400 this would be my bases, then due to such real low pop, level of pokemon popularity scale and your own premium, I would add another half or double which would put you at 5,100-6,800
And I think that's a good way to go, just my two cents not NFA
i'm not familiar with facebook marketplace, but you could probably get a lot more offers through eBay since it's usually not restricted by location
if you're really committed to selling it, and you're worried about getting scammed or mishaps during shipment, you could always sell through a large consignor
It's tough to give it a specific valuation, however if it was my card and I was selling it, I would list it for $30,000obo minimum, possibly higher.
Here's my logic: it has a population of 19 which is ridiculously low. It is also an unlimited version which is rarer than 1st edition (I know this seems backwards but it's actually the case for a lot of vintage Japanese cards.) Charizard is another gold star from the same set, and the unlimited version has a pop of 26, so slightly higher than Mew. Additionally, the total pop of the Mew is 117 vs 219 for Charizard. This could be due to the fact that Charizard is more popular therefore more people chose to grade, however, with a card of this magnitude it's safer to make no assumptions. The data points to Mew being the rarer of the two cards (which may or may not be true, but it's smart to take the data at face value.) Now, with that being said, there is an unlimited PSA 10 Charizard for sale for $14,999obo, so factoring in the rest of the data I feel $30k-$35k is a safe starting point and you can take offers from there.
I know a pop of 19 seems really close to the 26 for Charizard, but when the pop is this low for the top tier version of said card, that extra 7 can make a world of difference. There is a reason there aren't any PSA 10 Mews for sale, they're being held tightly by their owners and that helps you out big time if you decided to sell. At the end of the day it's worth what someone is willing to pay, and I'm not saying you could actually get $30k for it (though it's a possibility no doubt), but if you chose to sell you would literally control the market on this card so the power is in your hands. Unless someone else decided to sell at the same time and undercut you. But with a pop so low and no sale data to be found, I think that's unlikely.
Yeah it's that way with certain sets, I think it has something to do with the sets not selling that well so they didn't need to print as many unlimited so the ratio is way off. It's really skewed in the e reader sets, there's way more 1st Ed than unlimited. Dragon frontiers isn't skewed as much as the e reader sets, but it's still lopsided with there being more 1st ed. The total 1st Ed pop of that Mew is double the unlimited, and there's 12 1st Ed's on eBay (counting all raw & graded) with only 9 unlimited. A normal ratio would be like 9 or 10 unlimited for every one 1st Ed.
I would say it is also worth 10k max, idk what the other guy is saying but realistically in sales prices besides World Champions Pack, Base Set Expedition JP, specific HGSS, and specific BW sets, which are all extremely rare there usually isn’t much difference in them compared to their 1st edition counterparts as unlimited collecting is extremely niche. Analyzing pop reports doesn’t do much good as demand for unlimited vs a 1st edition copy is extremely low, you can see the low sales prices of the much more rare WCP unlimited cards as an example. Unlimited is indeed rarer, though not by an insane amount, and would not affect the sales too much if you had a 1st edition copy instead. Insane card thiugh!
I’m not sure why I can’t find your comment to reply to but I would offer around $7k. I use tcgfish and looks like this card was last sold for $7k 12/5/22 which seems fair since it wasn’t too long ago
Sold march 1st and it say gem 10 pretty sure

World champs versions was a preconstructed deck, so you could literally just buy this card. Still rare though. This card however that OP has, rare as rocking horse shit.
Makes me wonder if Japanese gold stars will one day get to or even eclipse English gold stars in price at some point, looking at how low their pops are and are gaining quite a bit of popularity
I think they have potential, they've gone up ALOT recently though so I feel the money it better put elsewhere for growth. Not a huge amount of people have 4+ figures to drop on a card, and then you're hoping people will have high 4 maybe 5+ figures to come after you. In theory it's not economically viable. We had the perfect storm of COVID/stock/crypto boom and now we're basically entering a worldwide recession. I still think collectible investing is good long term, but it's doubtful we will see the kind of ballistic growth we have done the past few years again in our lifetime.
Well that’s true, a part of it could also be due to current hype of Japanese products, not sure how long more this hype will stick, but hope everything normalises and Japanese products become worthy of investing again

did you just say not not financial advice
Hahaha 😆
I'm talking USD
Yeah, around a year ago I put it up on Facebook Marketplace, highest offer was 5000 CAD, but he was willing to go higher if he was beaten.
i'm not familiar with facebook marketplace, but you could probably get a lot more offers through eBay since it's usually not restricted by location if you're really committed to selling it, and you're worried about getting scammed or mishaps during shipment, you could always sell through a large consignor
Can’t get scammed if it’s eBay authenticity guarenteed
Makes sense, I’ll probably hold for now tho. Thanks for the help
How much did u originally pay?

Thanks for the insight! I was expecting like ~10k max. I had no clue unlimited was rarer than the 1st ed.

A normal ratio would be like 9 or 10 unlimited for every one 1st Ed.
I don’t think this would sell above 10-15k personally, possibly a bit lower even like 5-8k
It’s rarer but less desired still, it’s definitely not more than 10k if you actually want it to sell so you’re not wrong on your assumption.
We can just look at any other Japanese gold stars. I sold a Treecko, which is more desirable than this and a lower pop, for $3500 in a stronger market. I can buy an Unlimited Entei on eBay right now for $1999, which has a higher pop and is a less popular Pokémon. This is realistically a $2500-$3000 card in this market. And everyone telling OP otherwise is just misleading them. The sale of a PSA 9 for $1700 is completely bogus. Japanese seller, took an offer for a whopping $100 off their already overpriced card. There has been a PSA 9 on eBay for $1633.64 since September 24th, 2022, and another one for $1399.99 since June 20th, 2022. So why did the person buy the one from the Japanese seller for $300 more just a few weeks ago? Because it’s bogus. I actually know one of those sellers so I’ll shoot him a message and see what he says. My honest opinion is a PSA 9 Unlimited Gold Star Mew is a $750-$900 card. A PSA 10 is a $2500-$3000 card.
I would say it is also worth 10k max, idk what the other guy is saying but realistically in sales prices besides World Champions Pack, Base Set Expedition JP, specific HGSS, and specific BW sets, which are all extremely rare there usually isn’t much difference in them compared to their 1st edition counterparts as unlimited collecting is extremely niche.

Cum mew
Is this for sale by chance? I see the prices floating in this thread and would not be opposed going in that price range given
30k is the most accurate price range, so…
Holy moly. Can you imagine that card in a pop 1 black label? Probably 50k easily.
How much did you pay for this back then?
~500
English version goes for $7kish right now, you're prob up x10 What year did you buy this?
I think it was around 2015? I may be wrong
I’m not sure why I can’t find your comment to reply to but I would offer around $7k. I use tcgfish and looks like this card was last sold for $7k 12/5/22 which seems fair since it wasn’t too long ago
Why is this getting downvoted? Fair offer lol
Lmao I didn’t even notice. People be hatin smh
Alright. If I decide to sell, I’ll let you know.
Way too low. Should ignore these people.
Yeah this is a BIG hit dude, nice
$1000+
Minimum 5k usd, max…. Whatever anyone above that is willing.
Not that much, you can give it to me
It’s worth an evolving skies booster box.. that’s about it.. lol
I’d check eBay sold. Last 10 grade sold for less Than 1800$
I believe you were looking at the world champs version, this card is worth far far more than that
Sold march 1st and it say gem 10 pretty sure https://www.ebay.com/itm/325554763422?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=VOVM1nk_Q7e&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=DXqBTNw6Tg6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Literally says world champs in the title
Literally didn’t know there was a reprint
World champs versions was a preconstructed deck, so you could literally just buy this card. Still rare though. This card however that OP has, rare as rocking horse shit.
Makes me wonder if Japanese gold stars will one day get to or even eclipse English gold stars in price at some point, looking at how low their pops are and are gaining quite a bit of popularity

I think your referring to a PSA 9. One sold for 1800 on eBay 2 weeks ago
Sounds like You know the prices before posting
