10Grading odds
PSA has graded 191 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 13.6% 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 $278.98£209.98€245.69 on average against $128.41£96.65€113.09 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $150.57£113.33€132.61, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

The Voltorb on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from EX Team Rocket Returns, and it trades at $72.50£54.57€63.85 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 $13.77£10.36€12.13, PSA 8 $90.99£68.48€80.13, PSA 9 $102.03£76.79€89.85, CGC/BGS 9.5 $112£84.30€98.63, PSA 10 $1,495£1,125€1,316. PSA has graded 191 copies of it. 268 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Voltorb worth?
A PSA 10 Voltorb from EX Team Rocket Returns sells for $1,495. 6.2% 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 Voltorb from EX Team Rocket Returns worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $173.33 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $28.42 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $44.92.
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 $1,495£1,125€1,316. 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.
