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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Phoebe#175/163Holofoil | Battle Styles | $25.29 | $66.84 | 2.6× | $41.55 | 158% | 46% | 167 |
 Vileplume#031/165Reverse Holofoil | Expedition Base Set | $94.44 | $250 | 2.6× | $155 | 70% | 5.2% | 42 |
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.
