WORTH GRADING?

Grading Tentacruel #45/92 pays only if you expect a 10: PSA 10 copies are listed from $371.69 on eBay (eBay asks checked Sep 2, 2026) vs $38.80 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees you'd need about 1 in 8 copies to grade a 10 to break even (a 13% chance). run your own numbers →

+

In TickerMint's daily data (since February 2024), the TCGplayer market price for Tentacruel [Reverse Holofoil] (all conditions) peaked at $38.80 (2026-10-16) and bottomed at $6.74 (2024-05-25).

Is Tentacruel #45/92 worth grading?

+

Grading Tentacruel #45/92 pays only if you expect a 10: PSA 10 copies are listed from $371.69 on eBay (eBay asks checked Sep 2, 2026) vs $38.80 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees you'd need about 1 in 8 copies to grade a 10 to break even (a 13% 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.
