A PSA 10 currently sells for about £30.93, raw the card sits at £2.02 — 15,3× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns £30.93 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 25 auctions the median was £3.67, across 55 fixed-price sales £1.77. Auctions therefore fetched about 108 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between £1.27 and £2.11, with a median of £1.61. 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 £0.85. Offers well below £0.51 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 £2.23 (13), Japanese £1.64 (74). English fetches about 36 % 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.
