Charizard EX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £125.01, raw the card sits at £12.30 — 10,2× as much. Of 15.901 copies already graded, 30 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £60.77 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 326 auctions the median was £11.43, across 519 fixed-price sales £12.03. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £7.56 and £13.00, with a median of £10.39. 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 £5.13. Offers well below £3.08 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 £17.97 (17), German £17.25 (17), English £11.18 (736). Italian fetches about 61 % 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.
