0% if a miss grades PSA 9, 1.9% if it grades PSA 8.

A PSA 10 sells for 3.6× a CGC 10 of this card. PSA has the most sales, 52. The verdict uses PSA.
After each grader’s base fee for that value, shipping and selling fees, a 10 nets $3,067 from PSA, $935 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 3.4%. At 15%: +$326 versus selling the 9 for a net $345.
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.

PSA raised their base-level grading fee from $30 to $35 for standard cards. Express and Super Express tiers unchanged. This may reduce casual submissions and tighten PSA 10 supply for modern cards.

As expected, the market saw a 5-10% correction across most categories following the December holiday buying surge. Vintage cards held better than modern, with Base Set holos showing minimal decline.
