Umbreon & Darkrai GX

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £5,115, raw the card sits at £160.29 — 31.9× as much. Of 14.595 copies already graded, 8 % received a 10 and 45 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £715.70 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 158 auctions the median was £148.31, across 431 fixed-price sales £174.04. Fixed price therefore fetched about 17 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £119.01 and £190.06, with a median of £155.82. 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 £87.85. Offers well below £52.71 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 £194.95 (16), English £160.39 (653), Italian £105.95 (14). German fetches about 84 % 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.
