Tulip: Rarity & Collectibility
Tulip in its sought-after Holofoil variant is an Ultra Rare chase card, one of the headline pulls that most boosters never produce. Cataloged as Ultra Rare #244/182 of the SV04: Paradox Rift 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 Tulip?
In 2026, a Near Mint Tulip (Ultra Rare, SV04: Paradox Rift #244/182) changes hands at roughly $3.97, and its scarcity does most of the heavy lifting on that figure. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $3.97, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.50. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.97, Lightly Played $3.20, Moderately Played $2.91, Heavily Played $2.12, Damaged $1.50 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Tulip is valued near $34.00 — about 8.6x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Tulip: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Tulip, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Tulip sits around $34.00 — roughly 8.6x 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 $16.00, CGC 10 $37.50, CGC 9.5 $5.50 — 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.
