Team Rocket's Wobbuffet

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $235.71, raw the card sits at $13.49 — 17.5× as much. Of 10.944 copies already graded, 19 % received a 10 and 58 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $66.81 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 19 auctions the median was $13.84, across 108 fixed-price sales $13.84. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $10.80 and $16.85, with a median of $13.49. 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 $8.96. Offers well below $5.38 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: French $19.72 (22), German $15.68 (52), English $13.26 (118). French fetches about 49 % 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.
