Should you grade it?
Expected return across every likely grade, after fees — the realistic average, not the best case. Only 23.5% of copies gem (PSA 10 best case −$22); most land at PSA 9 or below.
The odds
Absol ex is a Holo / V / ex in Obsidian Flames — the pack's hit slot lands on Holo / V / ex 27.9% of the time, split across 21 holo / v / ex cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 75 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

⚖️ Risk-adjusted return
Best case isn't the whole story. Weighting every grade by how often it actually happens, across 251 PSA-graded copies:
| Likely outcome | Chance | Value |
|---|---|---|
| PSA 10 | 23.5% | $50.00 |
| PSA 9 | 48.6% | $23.00 |
| PSA ≤8 | 27.9% | $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 24% of 251 PSA-graded Absol ex copies are a gem-mint 10 (59 of 251) — the rest grade lower.
Real graded population from PSA, CGC & BGS — a lower gem rate means a Absol ex 10 is harder to pull.
