* A move this large often traces to a single sale or relisting rather than broad demand — treat it as a lead to verify, not a trend.

What stands out
- The 5 largest gains added $2,834.05 combined, against $557.45 shed by the 5 largest falls — the big money leaned toward the gainers.
- Legendary Collection appears 2 times among the movers — worth watching as a set, not just a single.
- 3 of the moves happened in played grades. Grades move independently (measured correlation ~0), so these say nothing about Near Mint copies of the same singles.
- 5 singles rose without one down day this week — see Heating up below.
- Gengar, Latias & Latios GX (Alternate Full Art), Arceus LV.X - DP53, Gengar, Mewtwo, Flareon ex, Pikachu ex - 276/217, Umbreon ex - 161/131, Luxray GL - 2010 (Mychael Bryan) are repeat appearances from the previous edition — sustained movement is a stronger signal than a one-day spike.
