Should I Grade My Misty's Psyduck 193?
Misty's Psyduck · Destined Rivals 193/182 · Illustration Rare
Short answer: Only if a PSA 10 sells for more than $121.97. At today’s raw price of $47.05, PSA Value grading ($39.99, the cheapest level whose $500 max value covers the recent PSA 10 median and that sale), $25.00 shipping and 13.25% selling fees break even at that graded sale price. Recent PSA 10 sales clear that bar (see the sold comps). Check your card’s centering before you pay to grade, and remember many cards come back a 9 or lower.

Median eBay sold prices for Misty's Psyduck 193/182 by PSA grade, from sales listed on PriceCharting[4] in the 90 days to Nov 9, 2026. Each sale there links to its eBay listing. These are real sales, not our estimates. Grades with fewer than 3 sales are not shown.
| Grade | Median sold | Sales | Sale dates |
|---|---|---|---|
| PSA 10 | $325.00† | 19 | Oct 19 – Nov 8 |
| PSA 9 | $64.66† | 23 | Oct 29 – Nov 9 |
| PSA 8 | $48.50† | 24 | Sep 5 – Nov 8 |
† PriceCharting lists only its most recent sales for this grade, so its median covers only the sale dates shown (often just the last few weeks), not the full 90 days. The real 90-day sale count is higher.
Break-even check: the PSA 10 median, $325.00[4], is $203.03 above this page’s $121.97 break-even, so a PSA 10 selling at that price would beat selling raw.
Our take: At the recent PSA 10 median ($325.00), a 10 would net about $176.13 more than selling raw at the $47.05 TCGplayer price, after PSA Value grading ($39.99), $25.00 shipping and 13.25% selling fees. At the PSA 9 median ($64.66), a 9 would net about $49.71 less than selling raw (also PSA Value, $39.99). Grading only pays if your chance of a 10 is better than about 22% (assuming anything less comes back a 9, which is optimistic), so submit only sharp, well-centered copies.[4]
PSA population
PSA has graded 20,549 copies; 6,705 are PSA 10s (32.6% gem rate) and 11,243 are PSA 9s. That means most graded copies (67.4%) did not get a 10, so check that a PSA 9 sale would still beat selling raw before you count on a 10.

See recent PSA 9 sales on eBay Pick a card firstAuto-picked Value: the cheapest tier whose $500 max value covers the graded value and break-even.
Max value is what the card's worth after grading, not raw. A $60 raw card you expect to be a $700 PSA 10 needs a tier with a cap of at least $700. If it comes back worth more than its tier's cap, PSA bumps it up to the right tier and charges the difference. How PSA tiers work
PSA fees per card as of Oct 29, 2026, from psacard.com, verified 2026-11-09. Value ($39.99, cards up to $500) reopened Oct 29, 2026; Value Bulk is still paused. Premium tiers for cards worth over $10,000 (Premium 1 to Premium 10, 5–7 business days) from psacard.com/pricing, checked Nov 3, 2026.
Only for your profit on the card. It doesn’t change the grade-or-sell-raw verdict: you’ve paid it either way.

Counting on a PSA 10? It needs about 55/45 front centering (PSA 9: about 60/40). Measure your card's centering from a photo before you pay to grade.
Assumes the card actually gets the grade you chose. Lower grades are common — try PSA 8/9 values too.
