Eternatus VMAX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £30.89, raw the card sits at £4.21 — 7.3× as much. Of 1.474 copies already graded, 83 % received a 10 and 13 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £28.16 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 43 auctions the median was £1.83, across 198 fixed-price sales £4.21. Fixed price therefore fetched about 130 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £3.02 and £4.50, with a median of £3.66. 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 £2.18. Offers well below £1.31 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 £7.83 (11), English £3.57 (304). German fetches about 119 % more.

Last Sold 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.
