Shadow Rider Calyrex V

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $58.91, raw the card sits at $10.61 — 5.6× as much. Of 857 copies already graded, 57 % received a 10 and 31 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $43.75 on average, before fees and shipping. Rule of thumb: submit when the value at a realistic grade is at least double the raw value — which is the case here. Centering decides it: an off-centre card will not get a 10. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 39 auctions the median was $10.82, across 220 fixed-price sales $10.36. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $8.94 and $12.52, with a median of $10.42. Selling fast lands you nearer the lower end; with patience, good photos and a complete title the upper end is achievable.

The cheapest genuine sales were around $7.60. Offers well below $4.56 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

From real sales: German $13.49 (12), English $11.72 (355). German fetches about 15 % more.

Last Sold uses only real sales — eBay plus auction houses like Goldin & Fanatics — recent sales count more (recency weighting), outliers and fakes are removed. It's not an estimate but actual sold prices, separated by condition, language and grading.
