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 BGS 10 to cover the BGS 9.5 buy plus the grading fee.
| Card | Set | BGS 9.5 | BGS 10 | Multiple | Gap | Break-even | Gem rate | Pop |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Alolan Ninetales-GX#SV53/94Holofoil | Hidden Fates Shiny Vault | $64.48 | $118 | 1.8× | $53.52 | 84% | 70% | — |



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 BGS 9.5 can come back lower.
