Every verdict on CardIntel uses these numbers: the PSA tier you submit at, shipping, selling fees and how much graded prices may move while you wait. They stay in this browser.
Verdicts use PSA prices. PSA charges by the value of the graded card: when a result is worth more than your tier’s limit, PSA moves it up a tier and bills the difference. Verdicts include that.
Shipping is split across the cards in a batch. Selling fees apply both to the graded sale and to selling raw.
What is open, what it costs, how long it takes and the value each tier covers. Verdicts on this site read from this table.

Guide
This calculator combines your raw basis, per-card shipping and insurance, outcome-specific grading fees and editable grade weights. Weights and value multipliers are illustrative assumptions, not measured grade probabilities. Missing reference prices remain unknown until you enter a value.
Each outcome subtracts raw basis, its own service fee, shipping and insurance from the assumed graded value. The weighted net is divided by raw basis plus weighted grading costs. Selling fees, taxes, duties, optional services and order charges are excluded.
A linked card may start with an eligible dated published reference. URL amounts and edits are manual assumptions. Graded rows use independently bound, dated supplier medians only when identity, printing, language, mapping and recent sample checks pass; otherwise the displayed multiplier is illustrative. A mixture of sources stays labeled row by row.
US direct-submission PSA, BGS and CGC fees were reviewed on October 17, 2026. PSA’s Value tiers have been paused since June 2, 2026, and its cheapest open tier is Standard at $59.99. Paused tiers are excluded. Each outcome uses its own value bracket; CGC bulk requires 25 cards, and percentage charges and PSA premium overages are included. Beckett insured-value limits remain unverified. Check the linked official pages for current availability and final charges.
Condition presets are uncalibrated scenario assumptions. You can edit each relative weight; positive weights are normalized and zero-weight outcomes do not affect the weighted result. Numeric grade buckets do not distinguish every certification variant. Results do not predict the condition, grade, sale price or profit of an individual card.
It divides weighted scenario net value by total modeled cost: raw basis plus grading fees, shipping and insurance. Selling costs and taxes are excluded.
No. Presets are illustrative assumptions, with no calibrated chance of a grade or sale. You can edit the weights to explore different scenarios.
Grading companies use value brackets and may apply upcharges. The model selects a fee for each outcome separately, using the higher of raw basis and graded value. Final charges and declared-value rules are determined by the company.
The raw value stays blank. Enter your own USD assumption to calculate; missing prices are not replaced with a default dollar value.
The grading result excludes selling fees. The comparison link opens the Sell Fee Calculator with the weighted graded value, raw basis and weighted grading costs filled in.
