>>55186172 hereWhile it's not "true vintage!!11 xDD", this is a good example. A lot of promo cards back in the day were dirt fucking cheap. Maybe no one wanted them, I don't know. You could get this thing for like $20~30. The art on this is fucking ugly too; why is the hind foot there so swollen and distractingly huge? There's nothing really unique about it. Plus, when it comes to items like this, I prefer to buy the whole set. Besides Rayquaza, Metagross, and Charizard (which were already absurdly expensive back then), the other Pokemon in the star set had ugly shiny colors so I passed on them. And would you look at them now - the cards in the set are selling for hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Too bad I can't go back to 2012 when I was debating whether I should buy it or not, but eventually passed up on it.
Just like bitcoin.
