Frequently asked questions

Is it worth grading Eiscue ex Obsidian Flames 222/197?

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £78.47, raw the card sits at £4.97 — 15.8× as much. Of 2.581 copies already graded, 31 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £33.64 on average, before fees and shipping. Rule of thumb: submit when the value at a realistic grade is at least double the raw value — which is the case here. Centering decides it: an off-centre card will not get a 10. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.
