A PSA 10 currently sells for about £6,540, raw the card sits at £236.04 — 27,7× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns £6,540 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.

Across 28 auctions the median was £151.28, across 76 fixed-price sales £186.77. Fixed price therefore fetched about 23 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £95.07 and £177.69, with a median of £142.24. 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 £43.37. Offers well below £26.02 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
