What is a PSA 10 Charmander worth?

A PSA 10 Charmander from Japanese Expansion Pack 20th Anniversary sells for $83. 78.4% 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 Charmander from Japanese Expansion Pack 20th Anniversary worth grading?

On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $69.40 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $3.49 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $34.08.

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 $83£62.20€72.43. 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.
