Pikachu exGrading odds
Ace has graded 347 copies. Where they landed:
These are Ace grades. The prices above are for PSA slabs, and a Ace 10 is not the same grade as a PSA 10, so read the two as separate markets rather than one.
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 90.1% 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 $145.65£110.12€131.79 on average against $125.39£94.80€113.45 for the card plus $79.99£60.48€72.38 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $20.26£15.32€18.34, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.
3 of the 3 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

What is a PSA 10 Salamence ex worth?

Is Salamence ex from 30th Celebration worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $145.65 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $25.40 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $20.26.
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 $156.91£118.63€141.97. 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.
