Mewtwo & Mew GXGrading odds
PSA has graded 54 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 16.7% 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 $47.74£35.93€42.05 on average against $105.93£79.73€93.29 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $58.19£43.79€51.24, so a copy is worth more raw.
1 of the 4 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

The Malamar (Prerelease) [Staff] on this page is the Holofoil printing from SM Promos, and it trades at $50.80£38.23€44.74 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 PSA 8 $23.58£17.75€20.77, PSA 9 $50£37.63€44.03, CGC/BGS 9.5 $55£41.40€48.44, PSA 10 $112.50£84.67€99.08. PSA has graded 54 copies of it. 58 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Malamar (Prerelease) [Staff] worth?
A PSA 10 Malamar (Prerelease) [Staff] from SM Promos sells for $112.50. 16.7% 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 (Prerelease) [Staff] from SM Promos worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $47.74 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $5.94 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $58.19.
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 $112.50£84.67€99.08. 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.
