Analysis

Charizard (Shadowless Holographic) sits in Base1 Shadowless. Raw spot is $1,200 per the most recent PriceCharting loose comp, last refreshed May 7, 2026.

I'm scoring this a 73/100 — PLAY. The math: $2,034 expected value at PSA Regular tier, less raw cost $1,200, less $25 grading fee, less $12 return shipping, less $270 eBay fee = +$527 net per copy. ROI works out to 44% on the raw cost basis.

PSA Regular tier turnaround runs about 65 days. Annualized for capital velocity, that's roughly +247% APR — useful framing if you're thinking about this as a capital allocation, not a one-shot trade.

Pop velocity is muted (1.0% in 30d), which I read as a positive signal — the gem-rate denominator isn't ballooning, so existing PSA 10 comps should hold.

Sourcing raw: high-end card. Don't buy without seeing high-resolution scans of every edge and the surface. Comp $1,200 is your ceiling — bid below it to leave room for grading risk. Auction houses (PWCC, Goldin) sell raw copies of cards in this range with provenance.

Risk to size: grading is one-way. Grading fees aren't refundable, the round-trip eats 65 days of capital, and the comp data lags real-time market shifts. Numbers above pull from PSA POP Report, recent eBay sold listings, and PriceCharting comps as of 2026-05-04.
