Should I grade it?

In TickerMint's daily data (since February 2024), the TCGplayer market price for Gengar VMAX (Alternate Art Secret) [Holofoil] (all conditions) peaked at $1048.09 (2026-08-13) and bottomed at $201.09 (2024-02-23).

Is Gengar VMAX #271/264 worth grading?

+

Grading Gengar VMAX #271/264 pays only if you expect a 10: PSA 10 copies are listed from $2,200.00 on eBay (eBay asks checked Oct 29, 2026) vs $1,027.28 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees you'd need about 1 in 29 copies to grade a 10 to break even (a 4% chance). 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.
