History, version, grading and market outlook for this card.

About Reflect Bounder

Reflect Bounder is an Effect Monster, printed as DCR-012 in Dark Crisis (2003) as an Ultra Rare. It is a Level 4 LIGHT Machine monster with 1,700 ATK and 1,000 DEF.

The top card is Contract with the Abyss at €53.55.

Character and collecting appeal

Machines range from early robots to modern archetypes, and the Type has a loyal following. Its text is about destroying cards and dealing damage.

Version and identification

This guide covers the Unlimited printing, without the "1st Edition" text below the artwork. 1st Edition copies of the same card have their own, usually higher, prices. Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read DCR-012. The code DCR-012, without a language letter, marks the original North American printing. European English copies have an E in the code, such as DCR-E012, and are priced separately. It is the Ultra Rare version. Ultra Rares have a gold-foil name and holographic artwork. Dark Crisis has one other printing of Reflect Bounder: DCR-012 1st Edition (€16.39). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Price history

Today an ungraded copy of this printing sells for about €5.80, a PSA 9 for €45.72 and a PSA 10 for €117.98. Our monthly prices for it go back to October 2021. Over the last 12 months ungraded copies are up 30%, and up 9% in the last month. Its highest monthly ungraded value was €9.26 in January 2024, 37% above today. PSA 10 copies have moved up 110% over the same 12 months. 1st Edition copies sell for about 2.8× the Unlimited printing (€16.39 against €5.80).

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 20.3× the ungraded price and 2.6× a PSA 9. That gap is big enough that grading a sharp, well-centred copy can pay for itself. On cards from the early 2000s, the dark brown backs show every scuff and white edge, so top grades are scarce.

Investment potential

In its favour: steady demand, with ungraded prices up 30% in a year; it comes from the first years of the English game, which are no longer printed; an active market (33 recent completed sales), so it is easy to sell. Treat this as background, not a prediction or financial advice.

Before you buy

Expect to pay around €5.80 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €45.72. Ask the seller to show the code DCR-012, the missing "1st Edition" text and the Ultra Rare finish clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. Cards from 2003 often show white wear on the back edges and corners, so ask for photos of the back before you buy.
