Grading odds
PSA has graded 233 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 13.3% 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 $24.59£18.51€21.66 on average against $101.85£76.66€89.70 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $77.26£58.15€68.04, so a copy is worth more raw.
1 of the 4 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

A PSA 10 Ampharos from XY - Steam Siege sells for $46.37. 17.5% 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 XY - Steam Siege worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $27.68 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $1.86 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $74.17.
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 $46.37£34.90€40.84. 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.
