Shining Mew

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €1.287,13, raw the card sits at €154,81 — 8,3× as much. Of 12.811 copies already graded, 27 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €522,67 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 68 auctions the median was €165,64, across 205 fixed-price sales €131,03. Auctions therefore fetched about 26 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €85,38 and €144,62, with a median of €111,60. 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 €57,08. Offers well below €34,25 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 €139,50 (285), German €56,85 (13). English fetches about 145 % 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.
