10Grading odds
PSA has graded 5,692 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 6.6% 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 $546.56£411.36€481.33 on average against $607.77£457.44€535.24 for the card plus $349£262.67€307.35 at Super Express, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $61.21£46.07€53.91, so a copy is worth more raw.

What is a PSA 10 Rocket's Zapdos worth?
A PSA 10 Rocket's Zapdos from Gym Challenge sells for $2,903. 10.8% 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 Rocket's Zapdos from Gym Challenge worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $690.83 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $238.77 for a raw copy plus $369 to send it through PSA Super Express, so it clears $83.06.
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 $2,903£2,185€2,557. 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.
