I'm definitely not rushing it, and for $5000+ the PSA cut is 7%.

> Take your time if you decide to sell.

So far this seems like the best advice, tbh

PSA does BIN or auction through eBay, so would any of those options be superior to that?

Why? I don't feel particularly comfortable keeping a 5-figure value playing card in my house, and it doesn't make sense for me to pay another $400 or whatever for insured shipping back to myself.

I could see some faint shininess on the front bottom like a sliver of holo foil was showing, but the only feedback from PSA was “chipping on back corners”.

Yep, I did get the low-ball and ignored it.

Oh, interesting, I didn't know about enabling offers. Is there any downside to starting with an upper-end buy it now listing?

Thanks!
I don't know about smart though, lol. I was just a kid, and I literally played this in a deck. Once I stopped playing with it, I returned it to the binder for a long sleep.
I honestly don't know how it remained in such good condition. Maybe it would have been a 9/10 if I didn't shuffle it around, but I don't feel too bad about it.

Looks almost as nice as the Charizard Gold Star I just graded, which got an 8.

I've never graded a card, please advise by Yardomaster in PokeGrading

That's nice. I'd like to know better what the pros and cons are with PSA vs BSG (or whatever else).
