1997 Pokémon phone card sells for $2.255 million in $5.35 million sale run
A rare 1997 Pokémon phone card sold for $2.255 million, per MSN. It led a run of five Pokémon collectibles sales totaling $5.35 million, including a $1.38 million Charizard.
The report is thin: no auction house, no grade, no buyer named, so the number is hard to verify. A phone card is a collectible, not a TCG card, and one seven-figure oddball result says little about prices for regular vintage or modern cards. Interesting, but not a market signal.
Our read, from the people who buy and sell these cards. Opinion, not financial advice.
