Vanillish

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $81.00, raw the card sits at $7.49 — 10,8× as much. Of 1.492 copies already graded, 38 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $43.58 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 125 auctions the median was $7.20, across 329 fixed-price sales $8.14. Fixed price therefore fetched about 13 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $6.16 and $9.61, with a median of $7.72. 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 $4.86. Offers well below $2.92 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: French $9.54 (19), Italian $8.98 (14), German $8.97 (65). French fetches about 21 % 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.
