"We Couldn't Believe It" - Man's Forgotten Pokémon Collection Sells For $2 Million
Money where your Meowth is. We've heard all kinds of wild Pokémon resale stories over the years, but this one might just be the craziest of the bunch and has left us ringing our parents telling them to get up in the loft and look for our old collections again. Last week, we heard that a man from Woking, UK, had received an eye-watering £1.56 million (a little over $2 million) at auction for his classic Pokémon collection.
