Domande Frequenti
01 Is PSA or BGS better for Pokemon cards?
PSA is the most popular for Pokemon cards and PSA-graded cards generally sell for higher prices. BGS is preferred by collectors who value the sub-grade detail and stricter grading standards. For maximum resale value, PSA is usually the better choice.
02 How much does it cost to grade a Pokemon card?
Pricing varies by company and service level. Economy services start at $15-20 per card with 3-6 month turnaround. Standard services cost $30-50 with 1-3 month turnaround. Express services range from $100-600 for faster processing.
03 What grade do I need for my card to be valuable?
PSA 9 and 10 are the sweet spots for value. A PSA 10 typically sells for 2-10x a PSA 9, and a PSA 9 sells for 2-5x a raw near-mint copy. Grades below 8 generally do not add significant value over raw cards for modern releases.
04 Can I grade any Pokemon card?
Yes, all legitimate Pokemon cards can be submitted for grading including standard cards, promos, error cards, and foreign language versions. However, it only makes financial sense for cards where the graded value exceeds the raw value plus grading costs.
