Is Nidoking #150/147 worth grading?
+×
Grading Nidoking #150/147 does not pay even for a 10: PSA 10 copies list from $1,000 on eBay vs $980 raw, and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees a 10 nets $835, less than the $853 a raw sale nets. That assumes a 9 or lower sells like a raw copy. "List from" is the lowest current PSA 10 asking price on eBay, not a sale; whether your copy grades a 10 depends on its condition, which TickerMint's verdict weighs for members.
