FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is it worth grading Charizard ex Obsidian Flames 228/197?

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £206.89, raw the card sits at £26.48 — 7.8× as much. Of 35.272 copies already graded, 26 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £87.35 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.

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.
