Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 36.5% 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 $126.84£95.46€111.70 on average against $102.50£77.15€90.27 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $24.34£18.32€21.43, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

The Lugia on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from Darkness Ablaze, and it trades at $2.69£2.02€2.37 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 $6.50£4.89€5.72, PSA 8 $13.89£10.45€12.23, PSA 9 $42.77£32.19€37.67, CGC/BGS 9.5 $47£35.37€41.39, PSA 10 $280£210.74€246.59. PSA has graded 1,270 copies of it. 683 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Lugia worth?
A PSA 10 Lugia from Darkness Ablaze sells for $280. 37.3% 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 Lugia from Darkness Ablaze worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $125.62 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $2.51 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $23.12.
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 $280£210.74€246.59. 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.
