Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 81.1% 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 $93.46£69.69€83.60 on average against $103.12£76.89€92.24 for the card plus $79.99£59.65€71.55 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $9.66£7.21€8.65, so a copy is worth more raw.

The Zapdos on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Japanese Emerald Break, and it trades at $2.30£1.72€2.06 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 8 $11.50£8.58€10.29, PSA 9 $13£9.69€11.63, CGC/BGS 9.5 $16£11.93€14.31, PSA 10 $112.50£83.89€100.64. PSA has graded 53 copies of it. 72 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Zapdos worth?
A PSA 10 Zapdos from Japanese Emerald Break sells for $112.50. 81.1% 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 Zapdos from Japanese Emerald Break worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $93.46 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $3.13 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $9.66.
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 $112.50£83.89€100.64. 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.
