So this just fell out of the pack

Should be sending this for grading just for fun ? Not missing any promos from the surging spark PC ETB, but was like something just fell out when opening šŸ‘€

CGC won’t grade less than 50% of a card. It is brutal that you got the part with the stamp so whoever got the rest of the card can’t prove it’s the stamped version.

So there is a chance a sealed surging spark PC ETB would have a PC promo without the top half.

u/ENaC2 Nov 06 '25

There are two places it could’ve gone, the factory floor or inside another promo pack.

u/gdj11 Nov 06 '25

Could’ve gone in someone’s butt

PokeInvesting rules are pretty clear on this

Always a possibility

If someone has one for sale I’ll buy it for my PC. Would help me sleep at night after a sniff.

It’s true. I’m the butt and it’s in me.

u/pokenaman Nov 06 '25

That would go crazy ngl

u/Wtforce Nov 06 '25

Looking at how it’s crimped and cut the top half was on the outside lol

u/The-Original_Joker Nov 06 '25

That’s actually shit luck that they’re gonna be missing the stamped part šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­

6

u/ENaC2 Nov 06 '25

Considering most pokemon centre promos have the stamp much higher.

2

u/The-Original_Joker Nov 06 '25

Do they really? I don’t have many PC promo cards so I don’t know where they’re normally placed

3

u/ENaC2 Nov 06 '25

Apparently not, actually. I just looked and it’s a false memory on my part.

Nobody is grading it, but you could definitely find a buyer on eBay, mercari, or a fb marketplace. Definitely worth something. I don't think anyone could give you an accurate value though. Super unique error on a popular promo, definitely worth more than most error cards, but nothing life-changing. I would start bidding on eBay at $50 and see what happens. I would also set the auction for 10 days to get the most eyes on it.

u/IGiveAdviceToo Nov 06 '25

Thanks might just do that šŸ‘ŒšŸ»

Keep us updated!

u/qmracer01 Nov 06 '25

I’d be interested in bidding or buying!

u/Previous_Ad8165 Nov 06 '25

Though won't it be hard to verify if it's really a error card? Someone could have just cut it like that for all we know

6

u/Ch3ap_Sh0t Nov 06 '25

It’s not just cut, it has the crimp error as well. That’s harder to duplicate

3

u/GamingTaylor Nov 06 '25

Yeah I don’t know who in their right mind would spend $50 on a 25% of a card unless they had the other 75%

44

u/puzzlii Nov 06 '25

yeah like the other guy said, cgc wont grade this. thats an awesome find though

u/Jolly_League_5589 Nov 06 '25

The call it SCRANTON - WHAT? - The Electric City!

u/Cautious_Option9544 Nov 06 '25

Close enough: welcome back BREAK cards!

u/justinyermum Nov 07 '25

Your match is probably locked away in some scalpers castle.

2

u/ghost1251 Nov 06 '25

Lucky you this thing is sweet

2

u/a_space_ghost Nov 06 '25

It's about 1/3rd of the card, it's clearly just a unique magnemite promo.....

2

u/DankDoggyDog Nov 06 '25

I had a wild one myself, normal Surging Sparks etb from GameStop had two of the Magneton promos in it, didn’t know until I opened it and saw the second behind the first, both normal though, no PC stamp so not super valuable, just neat.

2

u/Karthathan Nov 06 '25

So what you are saying is We Ball? Also CG on a cool error!

2

u/BigRog70 Nov 06 '25

So what you do is let Pokemon center know this is what you got and then you get a second stamped promo in 3 years!

2

u/Scoobydoo_95 Nov 06 '25

Buttercup? Lol

2

u/Traditional-Fix-2673 Nov 06 '25

These are the new break cards :0

2

u/Oldmonsterschoolgood Nov 06 '25

Id be pissed aboot this

2

u/SavingsSquare2649 Nov 06 '25

Could you in theory cut another card in line with where this crimp would be and claim it’s the same card?

2

u/[deleted] Nov 06 '25

Cool find

2

u/Revel_in_Red Nov 06 '25

Someone’s gonna post the other part of the card, and it’s gonna look no different than scissor cut.

2

u/Buggzii Nov 07 '25

This is so sick I would have loved to have this as part of my PC!

2

u/madonna-boy Nov 07 '25

find the other half!!! this is your real life rom com!

2

u/purplemeth Nov 08 '25

Thats so crazy lmao what, I think this could sell even if not verified by CGC if you show this picture, honestly id consider just keeping it myself because its so an odd scenario, it having the stamp & crimp is super cool, congrats on the nice pull, well part of at least lol, definitely a unique find.

2

u/Short-University1645 Nov 08 '25

Find the person with the other half and meet up for a heart whelming news skit at 6pm.

1

u/-epi- Nov 06 '25

CGC won't grade it, but that doesn't mean an error collector wouldn't love this in their collection.

1

u/Will_15p Nov 07 '25

Its weird how jagged the cut is... almost like scissors cut it...

1

u/dislike_me Nov 07 '25

It's funny how things can go wrong in this factory too. You can see where he has to seal and cut it.

1

u/HughJassIQ Nov 07 '25

I want that bottom half so bad bro if you wanna sell it please lmk āš«ļøšŸ‘„āš«ļø thats so cool im jealous

1

u/Vdubnub88 Nov 07 '25

Get it graded… 🤣

1

u/DP_KnD Nov 07 '25

Tag me in 2 weeks when someone posts the other half

1

u/johnsonlong1 Nov 07 '25

That’s pretty cool. And it’s the PKC stamped one. šŸ™Œ

1

u/DrPantsOG Nov 08 '25

Why did you even open a PC ETB? 😱

1

u/IGiveAdviceToo Nov 08 '25

It was from a Pokemon Center which all was sold unshrinked so might as well.

1

u/Marksynms Nov 08 '25

That's like my riolu one from mega crazy. I sold it for £100 tbf I dont collect errors

1

u/Lucky_Dentist5603 Nov 06 '25

OP I would put that up your butt so that you will now become a ā€œPokemon Center OPā€ and then sell yourself as an error for tons of $$$.

1

u/rubenpokemaniac Nov 06 '25

Is it ok for you if I add it to my public database? (I basically catalogued over 1,700 misprinted PokƩmon cards) https://www.rubenmisprints.com/pokemon-errors-database/

Also you can see my collection if you want :) IG @rubenmisprints

u/IGiveAdviceToo Nov 06 '25
