Arceus VSTAR

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €73,83, raw the card sits at €5,40 — 13,7× as much. Of 3.093 copies already graded, 52 % received a 10 and 36 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €46,88 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 38 auctions the median was €5,25, across 173 fixed-price sales €5,90. Fixed price therefore fetched about 12 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €4,65 and €7,04, with a median of €5,58. 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 €3,94. Offers well below €2,36 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 €7,18 (13), French €5,75 (40), English €5,25 (139). Italian fetches about 64 % 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.
