Raw $4.68 → graded PSA 9$10.00, after ~$70.09 grading fee → 2.1× the raw value.

The odds

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

PSA 10 (gem mint)8.9%4 of 45
PSA 942.2%19 of 45
PSA graded so far45
Gem Mint 104
Total graded45

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 gradeEst. valueGrading feeNet vs rawMultiple
PSA 9$10.00$70$652.1×

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. Real outcome depends on the grade achieved; PSA 10 is best-case.

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

Only 9% of 45 PSA-graded Master Ball copies are a gem-mint 10 (4 of 45) — the rest grade lower.
