Of the 101 priced cards in Base, 3 trade at $100 or more and 19 at $10 or more, and the top ten cards alone account for 79% of the set's total market value. That concentration is typical of the hobby: the chase cards carry the set, and the median card sits at $2.80. If you're valuing a collection, price the top of this page first — the rest usually moves the total less than shipping costs do.
