Formula Used

The total value of your Pokemon card collection is calculated using the following formula:

Total Value = Σ (Number of Cards × Value per Card)

Where:

Number of Cards = Quantity of cards in each rarity category
Value per Card = Average market price based on rarity and condition

The calculator uses the following average values per card rarity (in USD):

Rarity	Mint Condition	Near Mint Condition	Excellent Condition
Common	$0.50	$0.30	$0.20
Uncommon	$1.00	$0.75	$0.50
Rare	$5.00	$3.50	$2.50
Holo Rare	$20.00	$15.00	$10.00
Secret Rare	$50.00	$35.00	$25.00

Note

These are average values and actual prices may vary based on recent sales, regional differences, and specific card editions.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the value of a sample collection:

10 Common cards (Mint condition)
5 Uncommon cards (Near Mint condition)
2 Rare cards (Excellent condition)
1 Holo Rare card (Mint condition)

Using the formula:

Total Value = (10 × $0.50) + (5 × $0.75) + (2 × $2.50) + (1 × $20.00)

= $5.00 + $3.75 + $5.00 + $20.00

= $33.75

This example shows a total estimated value of $33.75 for this collection.
