Best Answer

The First Edition cards are more expensive because there are fewer of them. They only make one First Edition release and after that it's all unlimited. Fewer copies of something makes it more rare and hence, more valuable.

Solution

First Edition are somewhat more expensive because you get a little extra writing on the cards. Even from the original country Japan, they don't use 1st Edition cards because theirs no such thing. Either that or the cards I got were just Unlimited Edition Japanese cards anyway.

1st edition cards will simply state '1st Edition' at the bottom left, just below the picture. Unlimited edition cards will not have anything there.

Promotional cards and reprint sets (such as Dark Revelation) never have 1st edition versions, even if that card was in the first print run.
