The odds
Kabu is a Ultra Rare in Darkness Ablaze — the pack's hit slot lands on Ultra Rare 10% of the time, split across 13 ultra rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 131 packs.
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.
Grade-by-grade ROI & risk-adjusted outcomesNet vs raw per target grade, plus the probability-weighted distribution
| Target grade | Est. value | Grading fee | Net vs raw | Multiple |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PSA 10 | $24.00 | $70 | −$48 | 17.9× |
| PSA 9 | $17.08 | $70 | −$54 | 12.7× |
⚖️ Risk-adjusted return
Best case isn't the whole story. Weighting every grade by how often it actually happens, across 810 PSA-graded copies:
| Likely outcome | Chance | Value |
|---|---|---|
| PSA 10 | 62.7% | $24.00 |
| PSA 9 | 31.2% | $17.00 |
| PSA ≤8 | 6% | $1.00 |
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 — every grade, with gem rates
Only 63% of 810 PSA-graded Kabu copies are a gem-mint 10 (508 of 810) — the rest grade lower.
Real graded population from PSA, CGC & BGS — a lower gem rate means a Kabu 10 is harder to pull.
