10Grading odds
CGC has graded 613 copies. Where they landed:
These are CGC grades. The prices above are for PSA slabs, and a CGC 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 43.5% 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 $62.90£47.34€55.39 on average against $102.51£77.15€90.28 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $39.61£29.82€34.89, so a copy is worth more raw.

What moves the price of this card
The Slugma on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Neo Revelation, and it trades at $2.13£1.60€1.88 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 7 $15£11.29€13.21, PSA 8 $19.75£14.86€17.39, PSA 9 $34.76£26.16€30.61, CGC/BGS 9.5 $38£28.60€33.47, PSA 10 $106.25£79.97€93.57. PSA has graded 322 copies of it. 299 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Slugma worth?
A PSA 10 Slugma from Neo Revelation sells for $106.25. 43.5% 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 Slugma from Neo Revelation worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $62.90 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $2.52 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $39.61.
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 $106.25£79.97€93.57. 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.
