Prices are set by PSA and subject to change. Which Pokemon cards are actually worth grading? Not most of them. Grading fees plus shipping mean the math only works when the expected graded value substantially exceeds the raw price. Cards that make sense are vintage holographics from Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, Neo and early English sets, modern chase cards like alt arts and special illustration rares, error cards, first editions, and anything with clean centering and surfaces. Cards that usually should not get graded include non-holo commons, recent mass-produced promos, cards with visible whitening or print lines, and anything where the raw market price is under about fifteen dollars. PSA grades four things on every card: centering, corners, edges, and surface. Your final grade is capped by the weakest of those four. A perfect surface cannot save off-center borders and sharp corners cannot save print line damage. PSA 10 is Gem Mint, essentially perfect. PSA 9 is Mint with one minor flaw. PSA 8 is Near Mint-Mint with light visible wear. PSA 7 and below step down from there with increasingly obvious flaws. Common questions. Do I need a PSA account? No, we submit on our shop account. How long does it take? Depends on tier, typically 5 to 95 days. Can I watch you package my submission? Yes, everything happens in front of you. What if a card grades lower than expected? We give you honest assessments before submitting so you never send cards we do not believe in. Do you grade Japanese Pokemon cards? Yes, PSA grades Japanese on the same scale.
