Negative expected value ($-2.32) — while a PSA 10 would be profitable, the probability-weighted outcome across all grades means you lose money on average at this grading tier. The gem rate is only 6% — you'll need a very clean copy to hit PSA 10. Only 60 sales per year — it may take time to find a buyer at full price.
