English SIR Band Widens Again: Market Signals 2026-11-03
Rayquaza High-End Market Watch for November 3, 2026. Rayquaza graded-card movement, high-end buyer demand, liquidity, and population-data context.
November 3, 2026 · 4 min read
Tuesday morning in Singapore. Three days to street date.
Official channels are quiet again. PokeBeach is still topped by the October 30 Aura Seeker Blastoise post. pokemon.cn has nothing newer than its October 30 cluster. The dated move today is on the mainland China side: Card Gym faction pick for season two opens.
On the tape, yesterday's $480 band did not hold.
Three sales blow the 138 band open
Yesterday five of six English Mega Rayquaza ex 138/103 SIR sales sat between $479 and $500. PriceCharting now shows three more raw eBay sales dated November 2:
- $377.29 - $466.01 - $530.00
Median $466.01. The low print slips under the old band; the high print spikes back to $530. Print is $479.50, down $3.54.
Three rows are enough to retire "the band held." Prerelease tape was always thin. Three days from street is not the time to treat $480 as an anchor.
Gold print catches down $57
English 141/103 Mega Hyper Rare has no clean November 2 sale on the page. The print still moved: $475.83, down $56.92 from yesterday's $532.75.
That is the print chasing the November 1 tape ($382.30, $420.00, $540.00). Gold print now sits next to the English SIR print. Street date decides which one breaks first.
Japanese MUR 113/076 has no new sale. Print unchanged at $420.69.
Japanese 110: a CGC 10 dump day
Japanese Storm Emeralda SAR 110/076 logged fourteen PriceCharting sales on November 2. Thirteen are titled CGC 10 Pristine, $336 to $393, median $361. One more CGC 10 printed at $51; that is too far off the cluster to treat as the same band.
These are CGC, not PSA. PSA 10 print on the same page is $511.00, down $34.50. Latest PSA 10 sale is still November 1 at $455.00. Raw print $189.45, down $26.55, with a November 1 raw at $230.68.
Raw English SIR is swinging $377 to $530 while Japanese CGC 10 stacks around $360. Different language, different grader, so no clean subtract. Direction is clear: graded supply is hitting the tape and prices are easing.
Sealed: box steady, ETB a little twisted
- English Delta Reign booster box: no November 2 sale. Latest still November 1, TCGplayer $228.79 and eBay $243.74, plus the $175.00 eBay PRESALE. Print $228.79, down $0.40. - ETB: November 2 TCGplayer $105.95. Print $114.83, up $1.68. Print is rising while the fresh sale sits near $106. November 1 also shows an eBay $102.50 titled PRESALE IN HAND; we list it and leave the in-hand claim alone.
In-hand boxes are still hugging print. ETB print and tape are not agreeing yet. Street date will force one side to move.
Lower slots
- Eevee 114/103 IR: two November 2 sales, $34.98 and $28.99. Print $32.98. - Zinnia's Trust 140/103 SIR: one November 2 sale, $37.95. Print $39.99. - Mega Rayquaza ex 84/103: two November 2 sales, $7.98 and $11.00. Print $12.97.
Eevee keeps grinding lower on thin volume. The regular ex already has a sub-$8 print.
