Dark Ampharos

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €2.689,78, raw the card sits at €83,13 — 32,4× as much. Of 1.218 copies already graded, 5 % received a 10 and 23 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €379,25 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 55 auctions the median was €62,12, across 151 fixed-price sales €63,13. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €39,46 and €78,41, with a median of €55,27. 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 €25,61. Offers well below €15,37 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 €69,75 (137), German €62,13 (11), Japanese €34,66 (48). English fetches about 101 % 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.
