Gardevoir

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £2,135, raw the card sits at £31.13 — 68,6× as much. Of 235 copies already graded, 5 % received a 10 and 29 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £219.96 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 28 auctions the median was £6.16, across 66 fixed-price sales £7.81. Fixed price therefore fetched about 27 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £4.10 and £12.75, with a median of £7.03. 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 £2.41. Offers well below £1.44 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 £8.92 (154), German £3.66 (22). English fetches about 144 % 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.
