Grading verdict · PSAex10-105 · Nov 9

Grade it

Grading pays even if it misses a 10: the PSA 9 price alone beats selling raw.

0% if a miss grades PSA 9, 1.5% if it grades PSA 8.

A PSA 9 or better beats selling raw.

  • PSA 10: no sales in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $28,211 from 16 sales, last on Nov 1.
  • PSA 9: only 1 sale in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $3,800 from 43 sales, last on Nov 3.
  • A PSA 10 here is worth about $28,211, above the limit of PSA Standard. PSA would move it up to Premium 2 at $1,999.00. The verdict includes this.
  • A PSA 9 ($3,800) is also above your tier’s limit, so it would cost $349.00 to grade.
  • Older card: raw prices often include played copies, and PSA 10s are scarcer. Judge by the grade your copy can realistically reach.

In the last 7 days, 1 PSA 9 sold. PSA 10 last sold on Nov 1 and PSA 8 last sold on Nov 2.

PSA 10s are 27% of this card’s PSA 9 and 10 sales. Owners sell their best copies, so this is not your chance of a 10.

Which grader’s 10 sells best

A PSA 10 sells for 2.8× a CGC 10 of this card. PSA has the most sales, 16. The verdict uses PSA.

PSA 10$28,21116 sales
CGC 10$10,00011 sales

After each grader’s base fee for that value, shipping and selling fees, a 10 nets $22,464 from PSA, $8,610 from CGC. Turnaround and resale demand differ too; check the grader board on Grading costs.

Already have a PSA 9?

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 2.6%. At 15%: +$2,432 versus selling the 9 for a net $3,296.

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.

Before you set your odds: what a PSA 10 needs

  • CenteringAbout 55/45 to 60/40 or better on the front, 75/25 on the back.
  • CornersFour sharp corners with no rounding or fraying.
  • EdgesNo whitening or chipping, especially on the back.
  • SurfaceNo scratches, print lines, dents or holo wear under a light.
