Team Rocket's Mimikyu

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €196,89, raw the card sits at €24,55 — 8,0× as much. Of 870 copies already graded, 63 % received a 10 and 27 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €140,01 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 273 auctions the median was €21,59, across 698 fixed-price sales €25,82. Fixed price therefore fetched about 20 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €20,29 and €30,05, with a median of €24,92. 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 €14,90. Offers well below €8,94 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: Italian €25,43 (74), French €24,67 (80), English €22,84 (642). Italian fetches about 103 % 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.
