Is Magnezone VSTAR worth grading?

$49

The odds

Magnezone VSTAR is a Secret / Rainbow in Lost Origin — the pack's hit slot lands on Secret / Rainbow 2.5% of the time, split across 27 secret / rainbow cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 1,085 packs.

Secret / Rainbow2.5%27 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)60.8%228 of 375
PSA 927.2%102 of 375
PSA graded so far375
Gem Mint 10228
Total graded375

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 368 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1060.6%$38.00
PSA 926.9%$19.00
PSA ≤812.5%$14.00

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 61% of 375 PSA-graded Magnezone VSTAR copies are a gem-mint 10 (228 of 375) — the rest grade lower.
