Mewtwo EX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £456.23, raw the card sits at £29.01 — 15,7× as much. Of 12.998 copies already graded, 26 % received a 10 and 47 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £167.58 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 294 auctions the median was £24.13, across 681 fixed-price sales £31.17. Fixed price therefore fetched about 29 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £18.57 and £34.30, with a median of £25.95. 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 £13.04. Offers well below £7.83 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 £26.33 (18), German £25.86 (14), English £24.08 (812). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
