PSA has graded 197 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 34.0% 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 $54.73£41.19€48.20 on average against $103.45£77.86€91.11 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $48.72£36.67€42.91, so a copy is worth more raw.

The Bulbasaur on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from Shining Legends, and it trades at $4.08£3.07€3.59 in near mint condition. The other 1 printing of the same card sits lower, which is normal: the scarcer print run always carries the premium.
Graded, it runs PSA 7 $7.38£5.55€6.50, PSA 8 $13.25£9.97€11.67, PSA 9 $40£30.11€35.23, CGC/BGS 9.5 $44£33.12€38.75, PSA 10 $99.99£75.26€88.06. PSA has graded 197 copies of it. 444 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Bulbasaur worth?
A PSA 10 Bulbasaur from Shining Legends sells for $99.99. 37.4% 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 Bulbasaur from Shining Legends worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $57.93 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $3.46 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $45.52.
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 $99.99£75.26€88.06. 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.
