Grading odds

CGC has graded 2,370 copies. Where they landed:

CGC Pristine 101,04744.2%
CGC Gem Mint 1095540.3%
CGC 9.5341.4%
CGC 923910.1%
CGC 8.5421.8%
Lower532.2%

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 92.8% 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 $38.17£28.46€34.14 on average against $105.16£78.41€94.07 for the card plus $79.99£59.65€71.55 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $66.99£49.96€59.93, so a copy is worth more raw.

What Ace copies sold for in the UK

Completed eBay UK sales, in pounds, where the listing recorded the grader and the grade. The graders are not interchangeable here: across 154 cards with both, an Ace 10 sells for about 60% of a PSA 10, and an Ace 9 for about 80% of a PSA 9. The count beside each price is how many sales it is a median of.

What moves the price of this card

The Zekrom ex on this page is the Holofoil printing from Japanese Black Bolt, and it trades at $3.37£2.51€3.01 in near mint condition. Only one printing of this card was produced, so there is no cheaper version to confuse it with.

Graded, it runs PSA 9 $17.75£13.24€15.88, CGC/BGS 9.5 $22£16.40€19.68, PSA 10 $40£29.83€35.78. PSA has graded 2,355 copies of it. 461 completed sales are on file.

What is a PSA 10 Zekrom ex worth?

A PSA 10 Zekrom ex from Japanese Black Bolt sells for $40. 91.9% 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 Zekrom ex from Japanese Black Bolt worth grading?

On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $37.95 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $5.17 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $67.21.

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 $40£29.83€35.78. 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.
