Charmander

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €3.262,74, raw the card sits at €3,51 — 929,6× as much. Of 520 copies already graded, 17 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €839,05 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 20 auctions the median was €4,36, across 83 fixed-price sales €4,00. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €2,24 and €5,22, with a median of €3,25. 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 €1,76. Offers well below €1,06 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 €5,23 (100), German €4,60 (13). English fetches about 14 % 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.
