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 CGC 10 to cover the CGC 9.5 buy plus the grading fee.
| Card | Set | CGC 9.5 | CGC 10 | Multiple | Gap | Break-even | Gem rate | Pop |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Pikachu#12/17Normal | POP Series 5 | $62.40 | $232 | 3.7× | $170 | 35% | 11% | 31 |
 Latias Star#105/107Holofoil | Deoxys | $8,289 | $30,843 | 3.7× | $22,554 | 28% | 1.6% | 4 |
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 CGC 9.5 can come back lower.
