A PSA 10 sells for 1.4× a CGC 10 of this card. PSA has the most sales, 19. The verdict uses PSA.
After each grader’s base fee for that value, shipping and selling fees, a 10 nets $294 from PSA, $221 from CGC. Turnaround and resale demand differ too; check the grader board on Grading costs.
Crack it and send the raw card again, or sell the 9 as it is. A miss pays a second grading fee and usually comes back a 9 again.
Cracking pays if that chance is at least 22%. At 15%: −$23 versus selling the 9 for a net $38.63.
A card that graded 9 once is less likely to get a 10 than a fresh copy, so set this lower than you would for one. Cracking a slab can also damage the card.
