Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 5.8% of copies reach a 10, which is why the top price is the wrong number to plan around. Weighting each grade’s PSA price by these odds, a submission is worth $281.77£212.08€248.15 on average against $226.48£170.46€199.45 for the card plus $149£112.14€131.22 at Express, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $55.29£41.62€48.70, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

What is a PSA 10 Ampharos worth?
A PSA 10 Ampharos from EX Unseen Forces sells for $1,942. 7.0% of the copies PSA has graded came back a 10, so that price is the best case rather than the one a submission should expect.
Is Ampharos from EX Unseen Forces worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $328.60 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $57.48 for a raw copy plus $169 to send it through PSA Express, so it clears $102.12.
Condition does most of the work below the surface. A copy with soft corners or a print line off centre trades well under the market price shown here, and a copy clean enough to grade trades well above it, which is why the PSA 10 sits at $1,942£1,462€1,710. Before you value your own copy, look at the corners under a light and check the centring on the back, where most cards give themselves away.

As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may move a basic Energy card attached to 1 of your Benched Pokémon to your Active Pokémon. This power can't be used if Ampharos is affected by a Special Condition.
You may discard all Lightning Energy attached to Ampharos. If you do, the Defending Pokémon is now Burned and Confused.
