Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 23.0% 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 $196.55£148.60€177.84 on average against $123.51£93.38€111.75 for the card plus $79.99£60.48€72.38 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $73.04£55.22€66.09, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

The Sandshrew on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Base Set (Shadowless), and it trades at $36.07£27.27€32.64 in near mint condition. The other 1 printing of the same card sits lower, which is normal: the scarcer print run always carries the premium.
Graded, it runs PSA 5 $21£15.88€19, PSA 6 $20.25£15.31€18.32, PSA 7 $40.79£30.84€36.91, PSA 8 $57.10£43.17€51.66, PSA 9 $98.62£74.56€89.23, CGC/BGS 9.5 $102.57£77.55€92.81, PSA 10 $617.50£466.86€558.72. PSA has graded 3,855 copies of it. 1,896 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Sandshrew worth?
A PSA 10 Sandshrew from Base Set (Shadowless) sells for $617.50. 25.7% 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 Sandshrew from Base Set (Shadowless) worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $212.33 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $23.52 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $88.82.
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 $617.50£466.86€558.72. 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.
