Break-even chance of a PSA 10

Enter a grading cost to calculate.

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 Bulbasaur

Bulbasaur 143/142 is an English Illustration Rare from Scarlet & Violet—Stellar Crown. Collectors search for it as a modern Kanto starter Illustration Rare and often compare it with the Squirtle Illustration Rare from the same set.

Why this card matters

Verified factBulbasaur 143/142 is one of the Kanto-starter Illustration Rares in Stellar Crown, and its card number sits beyond the regular 142-card denominator. That makes identity discipline important: the card is a specific English SCR/sv7 Illustration Rare by Orca, not any Bulbasaur card from 151 or an older set. The Pokémon product page documents Stellar Crown products launching in September 2024, while the catalog page identifies this card’s number, rarity, release date, and illustrator. Collector searches usually focus on the character, art treatment, and matching grade rather than any public print-run number. [1][2]

Identifying the exact version

Verified factThe exact card should read Bulbasaur 143/142 and belong to Stellar Crown. PSA comps should match 2024 Pokemon SCR EN-Stellar Crown #143 Bulbasaur Illustration Rare. Do not mix this with 151 Bulbasaur, Japanese releases, raw sales, or the PSA 9/PSA 10 grade classes. The card is Grass type, illustrated by Orca, and part of the Scarlet & Violet series. The overset number 143/142 is useful because it quickly separates the Illustration Rare from ordinary set cards and from other Bulbasaur printings that share the same character name. [1][3][4]

What moves the price between versions and grades

AnalysisThe opened sales evidence shows clear separation between PSA 10 and PSA 9 comps. PSA 10 sales in late September 2026 were in a different range from PSA 9 sales during the same week, so grade cannot be averaged across. Sale type also matters: auction, fixed price, and best-offer rows may each reflect different buyer behavior. A raw card should not be valued by simply subtracting a fixed amount from a slabbed sale; raw condition, centering, surface, and grading risk need their own evidence. No qualifying raw sold page was entered here. [3][4][5]

Authenticity checks

AnalysisCompare the card against an exact Stellar Crown reference for set code, 143/142 numbering, Illustration Rare rarity, and Orca artwork. Use several checks at once: front and back photos, texture, print registration, edge quality, corners, surface, and seller history. For PSA slabs, match the certification record to the label and then compare the physical holder and card images in the listing. Do not use destructive tests or assume a low price is harmless. Copied cert numbers exist, so a cert lookup is useful but not complete authentication. [1][3]

What people get wrong about this card

Bulbasaur 143/142 and Squirtle 148/142 should have the same price because they are from the same set.
The evidence supports researching each card’s own sold comps; shared set and character group do not create an automatic price match.
A PSA 9 sale can be averaged with PSA 10 sales to get one value.
Grades are separate markets and should be reported separately, especially when the sales ranges diverge.
The PSA population count is the number printed.
Population is only a grading-company count and cannot be used as the print run or copies in existence.
