OP13-108 jumped today on only a handful of sales. The comps look thin and possibly wash-traded — relisted lots, no broad buying. Why it matters: trade-in / buyback programs that price off market comps can be gamed by exactly this, so a headline “market price” may be manufactured. Our read: the real, liquid value is far lower — don't chase the spike, and treat any comp-based buyback value on this card with skepticism.
The next English booster set is up for pre-order. Sealed tends to hold value better than singles for most collectors; chase singles are higher-variance. Watch for allocation games and scalper relists near release.
