A PSA 10 currently sells for about £527.01, raw the card sits at £265.86 — 2,0× as much. Of 11.093 copies already graded, 64 % received a 10 and 24 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £429.85 on average, before fees and shipping. So submitting only pays off if the card truly hits a 10 — at any lower grade little remains after fees. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 133 auctions the median was £269.55, across 228 fixed-price sales £291.36. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £187.63 and £269.55, with a median of £236.22. 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 £127.55. Offers well below £76.53 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: Italian £277.47 (23), English £223.03 (221), German £127.11 (12). Italian fetches about 118 % 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.
