Dark Raticate

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $100.72, raw the card sits at $3.92 — 25.7× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns $100.72 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.

Across 50 auctions the median was $3.72, across 45 fixed-price sales $3.45. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $2.08 and $4.85, with a median of $3.17. 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 $1.49. Offers well below $0.89 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 $3.22 (16), English $3.18 (111). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
