A PSA 10 currently sells for about $709.59, raw the card sits at $509.64 — 1,4× as much. Of 9.963 copies already graded, 50 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $434.89 on average, before fees and shipping. So submitting only pays off if the card truly hits a 10 — at any lower grade little remains after fees. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 100 auctions the median was $119.60, across 336 fixed-price sales $107.86. Auctions therefore fetched about 11 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $67.09 and $106.04, with a median of $83.84. 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 $48.97. Offers well below $29.38 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 $111.39 (374), Japanese $68.75 (60). English fetches about 62 % 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.
