Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of ミュウ sell for $157, only $0.00 above the $6,980 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($67.28) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

| 50% | $112 | −$6,918 |
