Dark Hypno

A PSA 10 currently sells for about $151.25, raw the card sits at $10.06 — 15,0× as much. Of 485 copies already graded, 8 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $42.44 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 75 auctions the median was $6.30, across 255 fixed-price sales $8.12. Fixed price therefore fetched about 29 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $5.76 and $10.53, with a median of $7.76. 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 $3.93. Offers well below $2.36 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 $24.46 (23), English $9.92 (377). German fetches about 146 % 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.
