Ranked by expected profit 1
| # | Card | Raw | PSA 9 | PSA 10 | Cost | Best case | Gem rate | Expected | Sample |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Expected loss −$8 per submission: 23.1% of 403 graded copies came back PSA 10 ($265), and only a PSA 10 covers the $88 you have in it — a 9 loses money. Confidence high on that sample. | $15 | $23 | $265 | $73 | +$177 | 23.1% | −$8 | 403 high |
Expected = every grade outcome weighted by its share of the card's graded population, minus the raw price and the grading cost (PSA tier fee for the graded value plus ~$20 round-trip shipping, fees as of 2026-08-26). Best case is the PSA 10 leg alone. Gem rates come from a self-selected population — collectors grade their cleanest copies — so read them as an upper bound. Raw is a blended market price, not a sale of your copy. Full method and filters on the grading index.
