Condition Grade
Estimated PSA 8 (NM-MT) due to storage in a multi-pocket binder page without individual sleeves, which often causes surface micro-scratching and side-edge bowing.
Category
VMAX Ultra Rare
Manufacturer
The Pokémon Company (Licensed by Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK)
Demand Level
Moderate to Low. While Boltund is a popular Gen 8 Pokémon, this is a standard VMAX card rather than an Alternate Art or Secret Rare, making it highly common in the secondary market.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay, TCGPlayer, or local card shop bulk buy lists. This is an ideal card for a multi-card 'lot' listing on eBay.
Selling Tips
Due to the low raw value, it is not recommended to grade this card as grading fees will exceed the card's value. List as 'Near Mint' if there are no visible scratches. Best shipped in a penny sleeve and top loader inside a reinforced envelope (eBay Standard Envelope service).
