Dark Charizard

A PSA 10 currently sells for about €3.215,06, raw the card sits at €165,36 — 19,4× as much. Of 10.013 copies already graded, 8 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €732,37 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 119 auctions the median was €152,89, across 170 fixed-price sales €158,88. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €86,83 and €167,40, with a median of €125,55. 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 €56,92. Offers well below €34,15 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 €222,20 (10), English €125,55 (125). French 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.
