Absol Holo #27 value & price
Reviewed by Mumbles · Updated 8 Aug 2026Related Absol & chase cards
Tap to open
Absol is one of those Dark-type Pokemon that always feels a little ominous on the shelf, and this holo version, card #27 from the Japanese Lost Link set, has that quiet, moody charm collectors gravitate toward. If you are trying to pin down Absol value, the short answer is that a raw copy sits around $70, which makes it an approachable pickup for most collectors rather than a chase card only whales can afford. It is not the flashiest card in the set, but it has a steady following, and that shows in how consistently it holds its price.

The collector's take on Absol
Is Absol worth grading?
So is Absol worth grading? Here is the honest math: a raw copy runs about $70, a Grade 9 comes in at $218, and a PSA 10 jumps all the way up to $982, which works out to 14.0x the raw price. That is a real gap, and it is tempting to send every copy you own off to get slabbed. But gem mint is called gem mint for a reason, it is genuinely hard to hit, and grading fees plus shipping and the waiting game add up whether your card comes back a 10 or a 9. If your copy already looks clean under a light with sharp corners and no whitening, it might be worth the gamble. If it has any soft edges, you may be better off holding it raw or selling as is rather than betting on a perfect grade.
How rare is Absol?
We do not have official population numbers to point to here, but the Lost Link set is a Japanese release, and Japanese-exclusive holo cards like Absol tend to trade on print runs that are already smaller than the mainstream English sets most collectors are used to. That inherent scarcity is part of why the price holds up even without a huge grading population backing it. Fewer copies in circulation, especially in high grade, means the ones that do surface in PSA 10 condition carry real weight with buyers, which is reflected in that $982 price tag.
Where can you pull Absol?
This is where PackSpy's tracking actually tells you something a price guide cannot. Across the pack sites we monitor, Absol has been pulled just 1 time, on mnstr, with the biggest recorded pull coming in at $58 and the card turning up in Pack 1. That single data point tells its own story: this is not a card you should expect to rip open a pack and land. Most collectors who want Absol in their binder end up buying it directly on the secondary market rather than chasing it through pack openings, and that is worth knowing before you spend money hoping to pull it. Pack odds are a gamble, and the numbers here back that up plainly.
Questions people ask
How much is Absol worth?+
A raw, ungraded Absol Holo #27 from the Lost Link set is valued at $70. That is the baseline most collectors use when buying or selling loose copies, before grading enters the picture.
Is Absol worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for $982 compared to $70 raw, which is a 14.0x jump. Just know that gem mint condition is tough to land, and a Grade 9 only brings $218, so the payoff really depends on how clean your copy is before you send it in.
How much is a PSA 10 Absol worth?+
A PSA 10 copy of Absol Holo #27 is worth $982, making it by far the most valuable version of this card. That figure reflects both the grading premium and the genuine difficulty of pulling a flawless copy from this set.
