Mewtwo

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €845,37, raw the card sits at €4,27 — 198,0× as much. Of 4.720 copies already graded, 20 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €220,04 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 51 auctions the median was €5,00, across 141 fixed-price sales €3,68. Auctions therefore fetched about 36 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €2,31 and €5,69, with a median of €3,63. 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 €1,71. Offers well below €1,03 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 €4,27 (105), French €4,15 (69), English €3,49 (146). Italian fetches about 22 % 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.
