Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Lightly Played
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3 - $8 USD; Graded PSA 9: $25 - $40 USD; Graded PSA 10: $80 - $120 USD
Recent Sales
Recent raw sales for Dark Rapidash from Team Rocket range between $4 and $7 depending on exact surface and edge condition.
Condition Details
Minor edge whitening visible along the top and right borders, slight corner softening, and standard surface wear consistent with age, but no major creases or bends.
Grading Recommendation
Grading is likely not worthwhile unless aiming for a high grade (PSA 9 or 10) for a pristine copy; given the minor edge wear, it would likely score around a PSA 7 or 8, making grading costs close to the value increase.
