What is Entei worth?
Entei is a non-holo Rare. In Obsidian Flames, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Entei trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Entei before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
On Entei, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Entei in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Entei
For Entei, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Entei rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
