Charizard & Braixen GX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £314.85, raw the card sits at £82.50 — 3.8× as much. Of 3.942 copies already graded, 51 % received a 10 and 34 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £215.01 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 49 auctions the median was £75.84, across 86 fixed-price sales £92.30. Fixed price therefore fetched about 22 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £52.74 and £88.64, with a median of £69.56. 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 £33.83. Offers well below £20.30 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.
