A PSA 10 currently sells for about $1,019, raw the card sits at $4.38 — 232,8× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns $1,019 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 9 auctions the median was $7.31, across 19 fixed-price sales $4.87. Auctions therefore fetched about 50 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $2.94 and $6.60, with a median of $4.68. 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 $1.94. Offers well below $1.17 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
