Cassiopeia

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €45,05, raw the card sits at €3,94 — 11,4× as much. Of 943 copies already graded, 53 % received a 10 and 39 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €31,91 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 21 auctions the median was €2,51, across 136 fixed-price sales €3,77. Fixed price therefore fetched about 50 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €3,00 and €4,62, with a median of €3,67. 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 €2,35. Offers well below €1,41 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 €3,82 (15), English €3,54 (147). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
