PSA has graded 236 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 14.0% 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 $81.02£60.98€71.35 on average against $120.11£90.40€105.78 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $39.09£29.42€34.43, so a copy is worth more raw.

What moves the price of this card
The Steelix on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from EX Sandstorm, and it trades at $34.54£26€30.42 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 $26.80£20.17€23.60, PSA 8 $63.49£47.79€55.91, PSA 9 $69.09£52€60.85, CGC/BGS 9.5 $76£57.20€66.93, PSA 10 $245.30£184.62€216.03. PSA has graded 236 copies of it. 286 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Steelix worth?
A PSA 10 Steelix from EX Sandstorm sells for $245.30. 8.8% 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 Steelix from EX Sandstorm worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $68.69 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $20.12 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $51.42.
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 $245.30£184.62€216.03. 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.
