A PSA 10 currently sells for about €946,63, raw the card sits at €255,96 — 3,7× as much. Of 28.291 copies already graded, 35 % received a 10 and 52 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €501,54 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 385 auctions the median was €274,00, across 654 fixed-price sales €288,63. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €237,80 and €292,17, with a median of €263,53. 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 €196,28. Offers well below €117,77 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 €259,62 (641), Italian €249,87 (18), German €196,35 (58). English fetches about 32 % 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.
