Boss's Orders

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €42,67, raw the card sits at €18,55 — 2,3× as much. Of 1.160 copies already graded, 38 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €26,86 on average, before fees and shipping. So submitting only pays off if the card truly hits a 10 — at any lower grade little remains after fees. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 44 auctions the median was €10,01, across 186 fixed-price sales €15,12. Fixed price therefore fetched about 51 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €11,60 and €17,77, with a median of €14,46. 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 €9,30. Offers well below €5,58 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 €14,39 (146), German €8,12 (16). English fetches about 77 % 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.
