Sorry if you were hoping to pick up that limited edition Van Gogh Pikachu Pokemon card, as scalpers have done what they do best and put them up for hundreds online.
Last month, The Pokemon Company International announced that it would be collaborating with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, complete with unique merch mimicking Van Gogh’s iconic style. There was even a special, limited edition Van Gogh Pikachu trading card shown off that shows Pikachu in place of Van Gogh himself, a reference to his painting Self-Portrait with Grey Felt Hat. All sounds good so far right! Except, of course, scalpers being the kind of people that they are, have already bought up all the merch that was available online for themselves. Now, if you want that card, you’re going to have to fork out at least a hundred pounds, or more.
Scalpers have quickly posted listings of the card on sites like eBay, where copies of the card are ranging from £105, to £200, to even as high as £700 for a graded edition of the card. Other merch like prints, plushies, and deck boxes are also going for way above their retail prices, making this an obviously frustrating scenario for those wanting to pick anything up from the collaboration.
