How we got there
Expected graded value = 60.7% × $3,087.50 + 39.3% × $1,062.86 = $2,292.54. That sets the PSA tier: $199.00 covers declared values up to $2,500.00. After a 13.25% marketplace fee, the expected sale nets $1,988.85 against an all-in cost of $1,267.01. Our bar for a GRADE is 20% expected net ROI, which caps what you should pay at $1,448.31.
The scout's own gross estimate was about +102% (before selling fees and shipping, at a lower PSA fee). Our net figure is lower because it includes those costs.
Upcharge risk: a PSA 10 here is worth $3,087.50, above the $2,500.00 cap. If PSA bills at the 10 value ($349.00 tier), expected net ROI drops to 40.4% (GRADE).
Confidence: High. Huge pop, and the PSA 10 is worth about 3× the PSA 9. The 61% gem rate was also noted publicly on X.
