Team Rocket's Zapdos

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €102,18, raw the card sits at €23,25 — 4,4× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns €102,18 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.

Across 8 auctions the median was €80,69, across 21 fixed-price sales €41,53. Auctions therefore fetched about 94 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €19,14 and €34,35, with a median of €25,21. 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 €12,37. Offers well below €7,42 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: French €24,33 (10), English €23,09 (25). 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.
