Charizard & Braixen GX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £729.75, raw the card sits at £85.76 — 8,5× as much. Of 6.130 copies already graded, 43 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £373.28 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 48 auctions the median was £58.47, across 217 fixed-price sales £62.42. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £39.28 and £69.58, with a median of £53.76. 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 £25.71. Offers well below £15.42 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: German £93.16 (12), English £36.92 (329). German fetches about 152 % 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.
