Heritage Auctions, an auction house based in Dallas, Texas that deals with auctions relating to comics, video games, trading cards, and other collectible items, has put a rare Shining Steelix card from the Neo Destiny expansion set of the Pokémon Trading Card Game up for auction! One of eight kinds of "Shining" Pokémon released in the set, and as of the set's release one of only ten kinds, Shining Steelix is remarkably sought-after as its rarity exceeds that of a typical holofoil rare card from the set. Prospective bidders have until Tuesday, July 20th at 7:50 PM Central Time (or 8:50 PM Eastern Time) to place a bid on this valuable trading card from the Pokémon TCG.
