Is Voltorb 98/130 worth anything?
We don't have a live market price for this card at the moment. The price you'll get in the UK depends mostly on condition: check the corners, edges and surface, and whether the artwork is well centred. Damaged cards sell for much less, while professionally graded copies in top condition can sell for far more.
To be sure you have the right card, match the set symbol and the number 98/130 printed at the bottom of your card. There are 40 different Voltorb cards, so the number matters. Then compare completed eBay UK listings — sold prices, not asking prices — for copies in similar condition.
