Is Pikachu worth grading?
Based on a raw cost of $173.25
(Near Mint) and the median of recent eBay sales at each grade. Each figure is what
you'd net after grading and selling — the grading fee, a
$15.00 shipping estimate, and a
12.9% sale fee are already subtracted. It doesn't predict
the grade your card will get; it shows what each outcome is worth so you can decide.
