Is Gengar #05/62 worth grading?
+×
Grading Gengar #05/62 does not pay even for a 10: PSA 10 copies are listed from $400.00 on eBay (eBay asks checked Oct 23, 2026) vs $537.50 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees a 10 nets $313.00, less than the $467.63 a raw sale nets. That assumes a 9 or lower sells like a raw copy. "Listed from" is the lowest current PSA 10 asking price on eBay, not a sale, and asks can sit above what copies actually sell for. Whether your copy grades a 10 depends on its centering, corners, edges and surface.
