Cramorant

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $77.34, raw the card sits at $4.08 — 19.0× as much. Of 1.356 copies already graded, 53 % received a 10 and 40 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $49.98 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 59 auctions the median was $3.46, across 370 fixed-price sales $4.74. Fixed price therefore fetched about 37 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $3.88 and $5.58, with a median of $4.53. 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 $3.37. Offers well below $2.02 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 $4.79 (30), Italian $4.21 (45), English $3.94 (541). German fetches about 21 % 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.
