Team Rocket's Dugtrio

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €113,01, raw the card sits at €11,43 — 9,9× as much. Of 438 copies already graded, 72 % received a 10 and 21 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €92,63 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 256 auctions the median was €10,73, across 566 fixed-price sales €13,06. Fixed price therefore fetched about 22 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €9,77 and €14,11, with a median of €12,08. 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 €7,50. Offers well below €4,50 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 €12,85 (68), French €11,45 (79), English €11,16 (602). Italian fetches about 61 % 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.
