Sceptile

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €360,86, raw the card sits at €13,13 — 27,5× as much. Of 332 copies already graded, 4 % received a 10 and 27 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €106,67 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 32 auctions the median was €11,51, across 89 fixed-price sales €8,73. Auctions therefore fetched about 32 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €3,65 and €13,89, with a median of €8,48. 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 €2,09. Offers well below €1,25 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
