Why the verdict weights the odds

Only 85.6% 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 $78.83£59.08€68.79 on average against $114.98£86.16€100.33 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $36.15£27.09€31.54, so a copy is worth more raw.

What is a PSA 10 Sandshrew (Poke Ball Pattern) worth?

A PSA 10 Sandshrew (Poke Ball Pattern) from Japanese Pokemon Card 151 sells for $90.75. 85.6% 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 (Poke Ball Pattern) from Japanese Pokemon Card 151 worth grading?

On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $78.83 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $14.99 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $36.15.

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 $90.75£68.01€79.19. 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.
