Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 74.6% 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 $47.49£35.59€41.44 on average against $104.92£78.63€91.55 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $57.43£43.04€50.11, so a copy is worth more raw.

What moves the price of this card
The Malamar on this page is the Holofoil printing from Japanese GX Ultra Shiny, and it trades at $3.15£2.36€2.75 in near mint condition. Only one printing of this card was produced, so there is no cheaper version to confuse it with.
Graded, it runs CGC/BGS 9.5 $11£8.24€9.60, PSA 10 $63.68£47.72€55.57. PSA has graded 59 copies of it. 34 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Malamar worth?
A PSA 10 Malamar from Japanese GX Ultra Shiny sells for $63.68. 74.6% 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 Malamar from Japanese GX Ultra Shiny worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $47.49 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $4.93 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $57.43.
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 $63.68£47.72€55.57. 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.
