Dark Hypno

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $339.69, raw the card sits at $10.30 — 33,0× as much. Of 485 copies already graded, 8 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $83.87 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 131 auctions the median was $10.12, across 360 fixed-price sales $9.76. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $6.28 and $14.48, with a median of $9.42. 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 $4.47. Offers well below $2.68 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: German $24.07 (26), English $11.85 (514). German fetches about 103 % 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.
