The most valuable Alakazam card by confirmed sales at Fanatics Collect and Goldin is the 1999 Japanese vending Masaki promo holo Alakazam: a PSA 10 sold for $204,000 after 22 bids in a Fanatics Collect weekly auction on September 20, 2026. That is almost four times the best 1st Edition Base Set Alakazam we found, a $52,800 PSA 10 in October 2026. Below are the Alakazam cards with the biggest confirmed sales, the Gold Star result still waiting on payment, and how to check a price yourself.

Current as of October 16, 2026. Sales are from Fanatics Collect's sold records, confirmed on each lot page that is still online, and Goldin lot records. Auction prices include buyer's premium. Only single cards with sales marked paid or sold are ranked, so sets, multi-card lots and test prints are left out. Fanatics dates are auction close dates in Pacific time, so lot pages can show the next day.

The Most Valuable Alakazam Cards, Ranked

Ranked by each card's highest confirmed sale at Fanatics Collect or Goldin, in any grade. Print variants of the same card (1st Edition and Unlimited, shadowless and shadowed, holo and reverse holo) share one entry. Dark Alakazam and Sabrina's Alakazam count as Alakazam cards.

Alakazam Test Prints: Rare, but Not in the Ranking

Two Alakazam test prints sold at Goldin in 2026, and both are left out of the ranking because they were never released cards:

Shadowless Base Set "Disco" holo partial test print: $11,102 in CGC 9 (the only one CGC has graded at that tier, with none higher) at Goldin in May 2026.

1996 Japanese test print without the opaque layer (Raichu and Alakazam): $11,160 in CGC 10 at Goldin in February 2026.

How to Check an Alakazam Price Yourself

Count only paid sales. Fanatics Collect's sold records mark some results as unpaid (the lot page still says sold), and those can fall through. The $156,000 Gold Star Alakazam and a $45,600 Expedition Alakazam are the examples on this list.

Read the stamp and the shadow. Base Set Alakazam comes as 1st Edition shadowless, Unlimited shadowless and Unlimited, and the prices are far apart: $52,800 for a 1st Edition PSA 10 on October 4, 2026 against $18,600 for an Unlimited shadowless PSA 10 on July 12, 2026.

Check the population. The Topps Chrome Tekno Alakazam had only 10 PSA 10s on its lot page on October 16, 2026. Our guide on how to read the PSA pop report shows how, and our CGC vs PSA guide explains the two Pristine 10s on this list.
