Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £58.17, raw the card sits at £3.21 — 18,1× as much. Of 952 copies already graded, 48 % received a 10 and 39 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £41.99 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 5 auctions the median was £1.27, across 50 fixed-price sales £3.15. Fixed price therefore fetched about 149 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £2.04 and £3.39, with a median of £2.61. 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 £1.53. Offers well below £0.92 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 £2.59 (34), German £2.12 (28). English fetches about 22 % 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.
