Shining Ho-Oh

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €571,52, raw the card sits at €28,03 — 20,4× as much. Of 9.539 copies already graded, 25 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €211,34 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 36 auctions the median was €29,57, across 191 fixed-price sales €29,68. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €17,92 and €32,00, with a median of €26,25. 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 €16,53. Offers well below €9,92 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 €26,25 (150), Italian €18,08 (14). English fetches about 45 % 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.
