Erika's Invitation

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €95,50, raw the card sits at €17,49 — 5,5× as much. Of 18.335 copies already graded, 30 % received a 10 and 51 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €45,36 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 246 auctions the median was €17,73, across 429 fixed-price sales €20,95. Fixed price therefore fetched about 18 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €16,30 and €22,50, with a median of €18,73. 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 €13,02. Offers well below €7,81 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: German €20,01 (33), French €19,78 (48), Italian €19,59 (33). German fetches about 14 % 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.
