Piplup

Shops and show vendors commonly offer about 70% of market in cash and 80% in store credit. At today's $34.72 market price that is roughly $24 cash or $28 trade for a near-mint copy. Selling it yourself on TCGplayer or eBay nets more after fees; see the seller-net answer below.

Grading Piplup #015/017 does not pay even for a 10: PSA 10 copies are listed from $70.99 on eBay (eBay asks checked Oct 17, 2026) vs $34.72 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees a 10 nets $26.76, less than the $30.21 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.
