A PSA 10 currently sells for about £91.76, raw the card sits at £14.74 — 6,2× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns £91.76 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 149 auctions the median was £18.64, across 291 fixed-price sales £22.18. Fixed price therefore fetched about 19 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £14.22 and £20.75, with a median of £16.33. 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 £11.88. Offers well below £7.13 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: Japanese £18.24 (574), English £14.74 (31). Japanese fetches about 24 % 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.
