Team Rocket's Persian ex

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €18,84, raw the card sits at €1,74 — 10,8× as much. Of 871 copies already graded, 60 % received a 10 and 29 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €18,84 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 95 auctions the median was €1,00, across 135 fixed-price sales €1,75. Fixed price therefore fetched about 75 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €1,16 and €2,19, with a median of €1,75. 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 €0,86. Offers well below €0,52 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 €1,81 (28), English €1,68 (203), German €1,00 (15). French fetches about 81 % 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.
