Gengar ex — collector's take
Is Gengar ex worth grading?
So is Gengar ex worth grading? Let's talk it through honestly. A PSA 10 sits at 4.1x the raw price, which sounds like a great multiplier on paper, going from $39 to $158. But look at Grade 9: it only sits at $51, barely above raw. That tells you the real money is concentrated almost entirely in gem mint, and anything less than a 10 doesn't move the needle much. Grading costs money and takes time regardless of what comes back, so before you send one in, look closely at the corners and centering yourself, because a Grade 9 result won't cover much beyond the fee you paid.
How rare is it?
The population numbers on Gengar ex are worth sitting with for a second. There are 10,340 total graded copies out there, and of those, 8,569 came back as PSA 10. That means the overwhelming majority of graded copies land at the top grade, which tells you this card tends to survive the grading process well. It also means gem mint copies aren't desperately rare relative to the graded pool, which is a big part of why the PSA 10 price holds at $158 rather than climbing into much rarer territory.
Where to pull it
This is where PackSpy's own data comes in, since we track real pulls across pack-opening sites rather than just guessing at odds. We've recorded Gengar ex pulled 69 times across mnstr, courtyard, and collector-crypt, with the biggest single pull we've logged coming in at $3,375. It's shown up in a handful of different products too, including Pack 3, the Pokémon Starter Pack, the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, the Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, and the Pokémon Pro Pack. Worth remembering though: opening packs chasing a specific card is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to covering their cost. If you want Gengar ex for your collection with certainty, buying it directly on the secondary market is the safer route.
Questions people ask
How much is Gengar ex worth?
A raw, ungraded Gengar ex is worth $39 right now. Get it graded and a Grade 9 brings $51, while a PSA 10 in gem mint condition is worth $158. So the price really depends on condition and whether it's been graded at all.
Is Gengar ex worth grading?
It can be, since a PSA 10 sits at 4.1x the raw price of $39, landing at $158. But Grade 9 only brings $51, so anything short of a perfect grade doesn't add much value once you factor in grading costs. With 8,569 of the 10,340 graded copies already coming back PSA 10, the odds aren't terrible, but it's still worth inspecting your copy closely before sending it in.
