Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 23.1% 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 $105.99£79.78€93.35 on average against $122.98£92.56€108.30 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $16.99£12.78€14.96, so a copy is worth more raw.

The Dark Quilava on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Neo Destiny, and it trades at $23.70£17.84€20.87 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.

What is a PSA 10 Dark Quilava worth?
A PSA 10 Dark Quilava from Neo Destiny sells for $310. 25.3% 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 Dark Quilava from Neo Destiny worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $114.00 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $22.99 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $8.98.
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 $310£233.32€273.01. 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.
