Grading math for this card
Prefilled with the latest qualifying sale for each grade where one exists. Replace any value with your own. We never suggest what grade your copy will get.
Formula from Grading: condition, uncertainty, and economics: grading pays only if your honest chance of the high grade exceeds (raw net + cost − other-outcome net) ÷ (high-grade net − other-outcome net). The 13% fee is an editable assumption, not a quoted tariff.
About Gengar VMAX
Gengar VMAX 271/264 is the English Fusion Strike alternate-art secret version of Gengar VMAX. Collectors search for it because it combines a popular Pokémon, a distinctive full-card illustration, and a high-volume modern graded market.
Why this card matters
Verified factThe official Fusion Strike checklist places Gengar VMAX outside the normal 264-card set numbering as card 271/264, which identifies it as a secret-numbered version rather than the regular Gengar VMAX. The card is searched heavily because it is a modern alternate-art chase card from a large Sword & Shield expansion released on November 12, 2021. Its market should be read as a specific card-and-grade market, not as a general price for any Gengar VMAX. [1][2][3]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factUse the collector number, language, and artwork first. The target version is English Fusion Strike 271/264; the regular Fusion Strike Gengar VMAX is a different card number and should not be merged into comps. Slabbed copies should have the PSA subject line FA/Gengar VMAX and the Fusion Strike-Secret variety. For raw copies, verify the full-card alternate artwork, texture, back condition, and that the photos show the exact card being sold. [1][3]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisRecent PSA data show separate markets by grade. On PSA cert pages opened for this research, PSA 10 sales were reported above recent PSA 9 sales, while PSA 8 sales were lower again. That spread is not a grading guarantee: PSA standards evaluate centering, corners, surface, gloss, and other defects, and PSA warns that even pack-fresh cards may miss Gem Mint. Treat grade, cert, and visible eye appeal as separate comp filters. [3][4][5][7]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare the card against official references, then run multiple physical checks rather than relying on one sign. Confirm the exact card number, artwork, texture, holo treatment, English text, set symbol, size, borders, back design, and seller-provided front and back photos. For slabs, match the certification record to the label and card, but do not stop there: PSA warns that valid certification numbers can be copied onto counterfeit labels. Do not perform destructive tests. [1][6][7]
