Varoom

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $82.93, raw the card sits at $3.57 — 23,2× as much. Of 1.415 copies already graded, 28 % received a 10 and 51 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $41.01 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 53 auctions the median was $2.24, across 191 fixed-price sales $3.52. Fixed price therefore fetched about 57 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $2.62 and $4.22, with a median of $3.38. 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 $1.94. Offers well below $1.17 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: English $3.13 (340), French $2.81 (17), German $2.41 (102). English fetches about 30 % more.

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.
