Grading odds

PSA has graded 673 copies. Where they landed:

PSA 1061090.6%
PSA 9527.7%
PSA 881.2%
PSA 720.3%
PSA 610.1%

Why the verdict weights the odds

Only 90.6% 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 $54.66£40.96€47.70 on average against $114.46£85.78€99.88 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $59.80£44.81€52.18, so a copy is worth more raw.

A PSA 10 Tentacruel (Poke Ball Pattern) from Japanese Pokemon Card 151 sells for $58.73. 90.6% 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 Tentacruel (Poke Ball Pattern) from Japanese Pokemon Card 151 worth grading?

On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $54.66 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $14.47 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $59.80.

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 $58.73£44.01€51.25. 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.
