Flareon GX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $421.51, raw the card sits at $16.99 — 24.8× as much. Of 816 copies already graded, 26 % received a 10 and 45 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $162.77 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 36 auctions the median was $12.27, across 189 fixed-price sales $11.76. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $8.80 and $13.65, with a median of $10.85. 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 $6.81. Offers well below $4.09 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: Italian $17.33 (12), English $13.04 (271). Italian fetches about 33 % 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.
