Big Parasol

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $35.19, raw the card sits at $3.14 — 11,2× as much. Of 1.101 copies already graded, 60 % received a 10 and 31 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $30.36 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 10 auctions the median was $2.90, across 46 fixed-price sales $3.43. Fixed price therefore fetched about 19 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $2.77 and $4.64, with a median of $3.24. 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 $2.27. Offers well below $1.36 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

lastsold 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.
