Magmar: Rarity & Collectibility
Magmar in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #086/165 of the Expedition set, it is the kind of card RarePokemonCard tracks for scarcity and collector demand rather than raw price alone. The harder a card is to pull in top condition, the more weight serious collectors place on it.
How Rare & Valuable Is Magmar?
In 2026, a Near Mint Magmar (Uncommon, Expedition #086/165) changes hands at roughly $34.64, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $34.64, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $4.63. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $34.64, Lightly Played $13.00, Moderately Played $14.15, Heavily Played $7.29, Damaged $4.63 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Magmar is valued near $1,150 — about 33x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Magmar: Gem Mint & Population
Even for a card at this rarity, the top of the market belongs to certified gem-mint copies. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Magmar sits around $1,150 — roughly 33x a raw copy. That gap exists because relatively few examples ever earn a perfect grade, so gem-mint population is the real scarcity collectors chase. Step down a notch and demand spreads across PSA 9 $65.00, CGC 9.5 $21.50, PSA 8 $22.49 — each tier a smaller, scarcer pool than the one below it. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
