GloomGrading odds
PSA has graded 745 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 34.2% 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 $26.38£19.86€23.23 on average against $100.98£76€88.93 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $74.60£56.15€65.70, so a copy is worth more raw.

The Charmander on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from Obsidian Flames, and it trades at $0.50£0.38€0.44 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 8 $8.50£6.40€7.49, PSA 9 $16.50£12.42€14.53, CGC/BGS 9.5 $18£13.55€15.85, PSA 10 $49.97£37.61€44.01. PSA has graded 745 copies of it. 600 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Charmander worth?
A PSA 10 Charmander from Obsidian Flames sells for $49.97. 34.3% 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 Obsidian Flames worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $26.49 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $0.99 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $74.49.
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 $49.97£37.61€44.01. 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.
