From 98 completed sales recorded between Feb 13, 2026 and Sep 3, 2026. Sold prices only — asking prices are never counted. The median above is computed over the 37 sales of the printing this page lists; 1st Edition and Shadowless copies are real sales of a different card and are shown separately rather than mixed in. The range is wide because these sales span different printings and conditions — 1st Edition, Shadowless and Unlimited copies all carry this card's name, and they trade at very different levels. Each sale above is labelled with what its listing claimed, so you can see which ones describe the same object. Treat the median as the typical copy, not the range.

Is Abra worth grading?

$5

Expected return across every likely grade, after fees — the realistic average, not the best case. Only 22.7% of copies gem (PSA 10 best case +$101); most land at PSA 9 or below.

The odds

Abra is a Commoncard — a guaranteed slot in every pack, not a rarity gamble, so there's no pull-odds figure for it.

PSA 10 (gem mint)22.3%573 of 2,567
PSA 941.6%1,069 of 2,567
PSA graded so far2,567
Gem Mint 10573
Total graded2,567

Estimates only. Pack odds come from CardTrack's pack model (the same one behind the pack simulator) — not an official rate. Grading odds are the real cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies, so it overstates the true first-submission gem rate. Full grade-by-grade breakdown below.

⚖️ Risk-adjusted return

Best case isn't the whole story. Weighting every grade by how often it actually happens, across 2,502 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1022.7%$175.00
PSA 942%$52.00
PSA ≤835.3%$20.00

Net = graded value − raw value − grading cost (tier fee + ~$20 round-trip shipping), using PSA fees as of 2026-06-28; the paused PSA Value tier is excluded so this isn't overstated. Gem rate is estimated from cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies — so it overstates the true grade rate. Treat it as a guide, not a guarantee.

Population across gradersPSA, CGC, BGS & TAG — every grade, with gem rates

Only 22% of 2,567 PSA-graded Abra copies are a gem-mint 10 (573 of 2,567) — the rest grade lower.

What NM / LP / MP actually mean — and how much they cost
