Sold prices, not asking. Near Mint estimate from 97 completed sales of this exact card, each adjusted for the condition it sold in. A typical copy fetches about $6 because most that trade are played, not mint. Updated 5 September 2026. Estimate, not an appraisalhow we price →

Why prices differ

TCGplayer market asking prices$12.82+59%
Recent sold median 74 completed sales$5.74−29%

TCGplayer's figure is what sellers are asking on their marketplace, not what copies sold for — an asking price sits above a completed sale because it is the start of a negotiation, not the end of one. Our price comes from those same completed sales, adjusted to Near Mint — the median below mixes every condition together, and most copies that change hands are played rather than mint.

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.

The odds

Metagross is a Rare in POP Series 1 — the pack's hit slot lands on Rare 100% of the time, split across 7 rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 7 packs.

Rare100%7 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)18.5%10 of 54
PSA 938.9%21 of 54
PSA graded so far54
Gem Mint 1010
Total graded54

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 51 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1019.6%$225.00
PSA 939.2%$100.00
PSA ≤841.2%$19.00

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 19% of 54 PSA-graded Metagross copies are a gem-mint 10 (10 of 54) — the rest grade lower.

“Sold” = median of real recent sold listings at that grade (eBay or Fanatics Collect — hover a badge to see which). “Modelled” = no verified graded sale behind the figure; it is derived from the raw price and reference guides, so treat it as a ceiling to check, not a price to quote.

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

For context: a graded PSA 6 slab of this card sells for about $11 (cert-verified) — a heavily-played raw copy shouldn't cost much more than that.
