Incredibly Rare ‘Yu-Gi-Oh!’ Card on Sale for $402,000 By Japanese Collector

January 17, 2018

Trading cards don’t normally cost the same as a brand new car, but this one-of-a-kind “Yu-Gi-Oh!” card, the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, can actually buy you a house as well as a car or two.

Twitter user @saku06s is selling his Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon card for a whopping 45 million yen ($402,000). It is currently displayed on Card Shop Spiral in Akihabara, Japan, which specializes in rare, expensive trading cards, according to SoraNews24.

This particular card can’t be bought at other online stores.

It turns out that this specific Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon is part of the prize package for winning a previous “Yu-Gi-Oh!” Asian Championship competition, which includes its own custom-made cases as well as a signboard with a signature from the creator of the franchise, Kazuki Takahashi.

However, the current asking price is nothing compared to the original price that @saku06s listed in 2016. Anime News Network reported that the Twitter user tried to sell the incredibly rare card for a very reasonable price of 99.9 billion yen ($893 million).

This definitely beats the Blue-Eyes White Dragon cards that were sold by a father to pay for his daughter’s education in November.
