Maractus #008/159 price and PSA 10 value

Maractus 008 grading math

Here is what you keep at each grade if you buy the card raw at today's price, pay PSA and $5 shipping, and sell the slab with a 13% selling fee. PSA's fee depends on what the card is worth after grading: it bills you up to the right tier if the card comes back worth more (the upcharge). PSA's cheapest open tier is Standard ($59.99). If this card grades a 10 it lands in Standard ($59.99), so your all-in cost is $65.15.

Grade	Sells for	PSA fee at that value	You make
PSA 10	$31.71	Standard $59.99	−$37.56
PSA 9	$18.00	Standard $59.99	−$49.49
PSA 8	$16.00	Standard $59.99	−$51.23

The slab has to sell for at least $74.89 to break even. A PSA 10 sells for about 198 times the raw price, and a PSA 9 for about 112.5 times.

Other grades: a 9.5 sells for about $20.00 and a BGS 10 for about $41.00.

Before you grade this card

Modern cards usually come out of the pack clean, so centering and print lines decide most grades. Check the borders left to right and top to bottom, and tilt the card under light to spot print lines. Graders score centering, corners, edges and surface, and the lowest of the four usually sets the grade. Our guide to card grading shows what to look for and compares PSA, BGS and CGC.
