Should I grade Starmie?
Ahead after fees: grading nets ≈ +$464 vs selling raw (est.)
Expected grading return from this card’s own PSA grade mix (17% gem rate; grades under 8 valued at the PSA 8 price) and current graded market prices, minus a ~$25/card bulk-rate grading fee, compared against selling ungraded at market price. Treat this edge as a ceiling: PSA pop rates reflect copies collectors chose to submit, and a random raw copy of an expensive card usually grades worse. Standard grading service costs more; centering risk, turnaround time, and shipping aren’t included. The exact PSA 8/9/10 prices behind this are part of Riffle premium. Not financial advice.
PSA population & gem rate
From the PSA population census, captured monthly by Riffle. A 17% gem rate is on the hard side; PSA 10 copies of this card are scarcer than the typical modern chase card. Grade-by-grade population and pop-over-time appear with Riffle premium.
