A PSA 10 currently sells for about £1,072, raw the card sits at £34.05 — 31.5× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns £1,072 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 17 auctions the median was £21.91, across 56 fixed-price sales £30.89. Fixed price therefore fetched about 41 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £15.70 and £35.06, with a median of £24.55. 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 £9.80. Offers well below £5.88 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.
