Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 41.7% 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 $125.92£93.28€111.76 on average against $119.60£88.59€106.15 for the card plus $79.99£59.25€70.99 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $6.32£4.68€5.61, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.
1 of the 3 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

What is a PSA 10 Ampharos worth?
A PSA 10 Ampharos from Japanese Wind from the Sea sells for $264.31. 41.7% 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 Japanese Wind from the Sea worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $125.92 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $19.61 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $6.32.
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 $264.31£195.79€234.59. 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.
