This Redditor shared his UPC pulls for the 30th anniversary. It’s safe to say Charizard and Lugia are going to end up $30 cards soon. #pokemontcg #30thCELEBRATION

I posted last week that Lugia’s price still had room to fall, and plenty of people agreed. There was also a wave of pushback from people who couldn’t imagine it dropping much further. The UPCs haven’t even fully hit the market yet. More supply is coming, and that’s going to put additional pressure on the price. I still expect Lugia to come down further. -Professor G.

Lugia has slid heavily over the past week, not just to #2 behind Charizard, but down into the $140s for recent sales. The UPC releases Friday, and we'll soon find out if this is just sellers getting ahead of a new surge of supply or where the market believes this should be priced

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME LIKE I'M FIVE If credit scores didn't exist until 1989, did all those boomers buy their first house without having to pass a credit check? Genuinely asking
