WORTH GRADING?

Grading The Portrait's Secret #DB1-EN246 pays only if you expect a 10: PSA 10 copies sell for about $52.66 and grade 8 copies for $6.23 (PriceCharting sold listings, Nov 2, 2026) vs $0.50 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees you'd need about 1 in 1 copies to grade a 10 to break even (a 75% chance). run your own numbers →
