Bring the heat to your vintage collection! Up for grabs is the 2000 Neo Genesis Typhlosion Holo #17/111, graded PSA 9 MINT. Neo Genesis introduced the Johto generation to the trading card game, and Typhlosion, the final evolution of Cyndaquil and the fire starter from Pokemon Gold and Silver, was one of its fan-favorite holos. This is the #17 version, with the Fire Recharge Pokemon Power and the Flame Burst attack. Shin-ichi Yoshida's artwork shows Typhlosion with its flames blazing over the classic cosmos holo, and in a 9 the yellow borders, holo, and colors really pop. This copy is the Unlimited print, authenticated and encapsulated by PSA (cert #89789922, verifiable on PSA's website). A PSA 9 is a tough grade for 25-year-old WOTC holos, which were often pulled with print lines and edge wear. To be upfront about the case: the back of the slab has some sticker residue on the plastic, as pictured. It is on the outside of the case only; the card itself is sealed inside, untouched. Photos are part of the description. Pair it with your Neo Genesis Meganium and Feraligatr, or start your Johto starter run right here!
This card qualifies for eBay's Authenticity Guarantee, so look for the blue checkmark badge on this listing! Here is how it works: after purchase, we ship the card within one business day via tracked, signature-required shipping to eBay's authentication facility, where the experts at PSA inspect the slab, label, and certification to verify everything matches this listing. Once it passes inspection, eBay ships it directly to you with secure tracked delivery and signature confirmation. The authentication step adds a few extra days to your delivery, but it comes at no cost to you and guarantees that what arrives at your door is exactly what you see here. Total protection for both of us!
Payment is due within four days of purchase or accepted offer; after that, an unpaid item case will be opened and your account will be blocked. Please note that because this card ships through eBay's authentication facility, it ships individually and cannot be combined with other purchases from our store; other items will ship separately. If you cannot pay right away, just send a message and let me know. Communication solves almost everything!
Our asking price is based on sold and active eBay listings for this card at this grade, so it reflects the market today. Offers are welcome on this listing and serious offers will get a response. A minimum offer floor is set, so low ball offers are automatically declined before they ever reach us, and repeat low-balling will get you added to our blocked buyer list. Be FAIR when making offers and let's make a deal!
Feedback will be left upon receipt of feedback. If an issue pops up, please contact me through eBay messaging first so we can resolve it together. We strive for five star ratings on every trade!
Due to the collectible nature of trading cards, all sales are final and returns are not accepted. We know that sounds strict, but sadly the trading card hobby has seen too many cases of card swapping and switcheroo fraud, and this policy protects honest trainers like you by keeping our cards authentic and our prices fair. This is exactly why we photograph everything, describe every item honestly, and document the card counts. Please review all photos carefully and ask every question you have BEFORE purchasing. We are happy to provide additional photos or details of any card in the binder on request. What you see is exactly what ships to you!
Because this card is delivered to you by eBay after authentication, any damage in transit is handled through eBay directly: open a return request for "item arrived damaged" within three calendar days of delivery, per eBay's Money Back Guarantee. Please also message us so we are aware and can help push it along.
To keep the full Authenticity Guarantee protection intact from our hands to yours, this card ships to US addresses only. We are unable to ship internationally or to PO Boxes, US territories, or APO/FPO addresses on this listing, as those destinations fall outside the authentication program. Thank you for understanding, trainers!
Our Pokemon Center is open Monday through Friday, 8AM to 4PM. Orders ship within one business day of payment unless there is a problem, in which case we will contact you. Friday purchases ship Monday. Messages are answered during normal business hours, so if you reach out over the weekend, please allow until Monday morning for a reply.
