A PSA 10 currently sells for about £414.94, raw the card sits at £46.27 — 9,0× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns £414.94 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 10 auctions the median was £51.87, across 8 fixed-price sales £83.56. Fixed price therefore fetched about 61 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £52.78 and £69.59, with a median of £61.52. 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 £44.23. Offers well below £26.54 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
