Crack-and-resubmit opportunities: slabs trading far below the next grade up. Both prices are sale-backed. Break-even = the share of resubmissions that must hit PSA 10 to cover the PSA 9 buy plus the grading fee.
| Card | Set | PSA 9 | PSA 10 | Multiple | Gap | Break-even | Gem rate | Pop |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Pichu#012/1111st Edition Holofoil | Neo Genesis | $1,664 | $42,792 | 25.7× | $41,128 | 5% | 1.1% | 37 |
 Smeargle#11/751st Edition Holofoil | Neo Discovery | $702 | $18,079 | 25.8× | $17,377 | 7% | 3.0% | 24 |
Break-even uses each target grader's cheapest live service (PSA Regular, CGC Economy, BGS Standard), upcharged at the target value. A regrade is never guaranteed — a cracked PSA 9 can come back lower.
