I’m fixing to send off a full mint SI set and I think the mew has a good shot at a 10. If you still don’t have one by then and I get lucky I’ll be in touch!

Good luck!
I cracked 2 SI sealed boxes a few months ago (both in crap condition, so thought what the hell), and while the cards are all pretty much ‘mint’, I couldn’t see any 10s in the holos - print lines aplenty. Can especially see why that Togepi is so tough. 
Will be sending mine off to PSA soon too, got my fingers crossed for majority 9s.
@thevenusaurgarden thanks! I got this set loose actually. No print lines, good centering. Just the tiniest spec of whitening on the back on the mew so hopefully the PSA gods will be generous. I’ll take any 10s really though!

@chopkins1994, that’s got to be even luckier than pulling them from a sealed collection! I have a few 10s of various cards in my own collection, PSA definitely let the occasional small white nick (on the reverse) slide so fingers crossed.

Is the backside damaged ?
All we know is that the seller refuses to show anyone the back of the card, even legitimate potential buyers who request pictures of it.
The description on the eBay listing used to say something like “Charizard is shy of his backside” but I guess the owner changed that at some point.
I would assume there’s probably a lot more whitening on the back of the card than PSA 10 collectors would ideally like to see. The PSA 10 Scroll that sold recently which had a lot of whitening on the back of the card (to the point that it was laughable that it graded a 10) might serve as an example of what this Charizard’s backside might look like.
