A PSA 10 currently sells for about €534,75, raw the card sits at €156,55 — 3,4× as much. Of 62.444 copies already graded, 31 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €270,69 on average, before fees and shipping. So submitting only pays off if the card truly hits a 10 — at any lower grade little remains after fees. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 368 auctions the median was €141,00, across 575 fixed-price sales €144,35. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €120,54 and €151,08, with a median of €132,06. 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 €108,38. Offers well below €65,03 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: French €165,00 (34), German €128,43 (74), English €123,23 (1003). French fetches about 53 % 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.
