Team Rocket's Nidoking ex

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £153.28, raw the card sits at £57.68 — 2.7× as much. Of 10.734 copies already graded, 59 % received a 10 and 28 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £123.63 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 347 auctions the median was £82.15, across 705 fixed-price sales £89.12. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £70.26 and £90.69, with a median of £79.33. 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 £62.96. Offers well below £37.77 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: French £150.61 (22), Italian £93.37 (30), German £84.88 (83). French fetches about 151 % 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.
