Garchomp #1: rarity, grading and trend

Garchomp #1 is a Rare Pokémon card from POP Series 9, the POP era (2009). The PSA 10 premium is only about $33.91 over raw, so grading rarely leaves much profit after fees and shipping. Its price has held almost flat over the last 30 days ($55.45 to $57.09). The illustration is by Kagemaru Himeno.

Graded card values (PSA, CGC, BGS)

Grading	Grade	Median sold	Sales

PSA	10	$91.00	1
PSA	9	$180.00	2
PSA	7	$50.00	3

Graded values are medians of real eBay sold listings.

Is it worth grading? Although a top grade carries only a modest premium over the raw band, grading may still suit a pristine copy or a registry-focused collection. Corner wear is the key issue to inspect, particularly small bends or whitening that can hold back otherwise attractive examples.
