Stumbled into a collection. Where to start with selling?

Recently a collection fell into my lap with the person wanting me to sell their cards for them. I’ve done it with MTG cards for them before since I have a better understanding of the market and stuff for those cards. I haven’t played Pokemon or collected the cards in years and I’m at a complete loss. Looking for some advice about where to even get started with what to grade, where to value, how to sell, etc. Any advice is welcome.

Below is a picture of the stuff I think is notable

Notable(?) stuff from the collection

I guess you need to *right click, show image* on the photos and link that URL instead of the one to the website they are embedded in. Or just post the link.

Try to take some better pictures of the cards (closer up). Someone here should be able to help you fairly quickly

grade everything in that picture that is in gradable condition. For the victory rings and mysterious pearls, grade them even at a PSA 8 condition.

I find that it is easier to sell graded cards than ungraded cards as all my complains come from selling ungraded card.

In terms of significant value, last few rings and pearls sold for $1000-$1200 for PSA 10 but the pearls have bad left-right centering. PSA 9s I have sold a Pearl for 550GBP a few months ago, around $700 at the time.

Legend Promo Medals in PSA 10s go from anywhere in $75-$120 from my selling experience. Not familiar with the pricing on the rest but I’m sure someone here is able to help you out.

Good luck!

Extra info : The rarest card in that collection is the Victory Ring, Anywhere from 189 to 504 copies. A lot of people say they are awarded to the top 3 only but I have a picture of a 6th place winner awarded with this card in a folder with the name and the placing of the winner, so I would like to think top 8 would receive this card since top 6 doesn’t really work out in terms of tournament placings.
