A PSA 10 currently sells for about £325.63, raw the card sits at £133.45 — 2,4× as much. Of 1.532 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 40 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £225.35 on average, before fees and shipping. So submitting only pays off if the card truly hits a 10 — at any lower grade little remains after fees. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 95 auctions the median was £124.42, across 220 fixed-price sales £141.78. Fixed price therefore fetched about 14 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £106.79 and £142.39, with a median of £124.49. 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 £85.03. Offers well below £51.02 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: English £124.58 (314), German £110.54 (16). English fetches about 13 % 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.
