Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 25.6% 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 $179.25£134.91€157.86 on average against $104.99£79.02€92.46 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $74.26£55.89€65.40, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

What is a PSA 10 Pikachu worth?
A PSA 10 Pikachu from SM - Burning Shadows sells for $610.29. 27.0% 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 Pikachu from SM - Burning Shadows worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $188.22 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $5 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $83.23.
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 $610.29£459.33€537.46. 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.
