Why did Shaymin jump so hard?

I checked the earlier price twice because both sides of the window sat on a full week of readings, so the step is real. My guess is copies dried up after a run of sales at the higher end, or a collector or two decided the card was underpriced next to what the graded ones fetch.

Each price is the middle of the prices we recorded over the 7 days to October 22, so it can sit above or below today's price on the card's page.

How this was made

Morning Pull is written each morning from the prices moonstone recorded overnight. Price changes: 43,307 cards checked; 699 moved 5% or more; 641 of those could be judged; 262 showed a recorded price that changed on more than half of the days and made the list, each price the middle of a week of readings. We left out 379 prices this morning because each was a price that was re-listed, not sold: the recorded price changed on half or fewer of the days we compared, where a card that trades changes on most of them. Daily Buys is its own list, published at 10:30 UTC and scored in public. Card art belongs to its publishers. Read this edition on the web.
