The collector's take on Palafin ex
Is Palafin ex worth grading?
Here's where it gets interesting. A raw Palafin ex is worth $2, but a PSA 10 sits at $142, which works out to roughly 71.0x the ungraded price. That's a real jump, and it's the kind of number that gets collectors thinking about sending cards in. But a Grade 9 only pulls $126, which tells you the market barely separates a near perfect copy from a truly gem mint one until you cross that final threshold. Grading costs money and takes time, and there's no guarantee your copy comes back a 10 rather than a 9, so before you submit anything, weigh the fee against what you'd actually gain if the card doesn't grade perfectly.
How rare is Palafin ex?
Across all grading submissions, there are 476 graded copies of Palafin ex on record, and 259 of those came back PSA 10. That's a big share landing at the top grade, which suggests that when collectors do send this card in, it tends to hold up well. It's not an ultra rare card in terms of population, but the value really only kicks in once you're holding a graded copy, and especially once you're holding a gem mint one.
Where can you pull Palafin ex?
We've tracked this card getting pulled 6 times across the pack sites we monitor, specifically courtyard and tilt-rips, with the biggest recorded pull coming in at $41. It's shown up in Pokémon Pro Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, and Pokemon Dollar Pack, so if you're chasing one yourself, those are the products where it's actually surfaced. That said, six pulls isn't a lot, and it's a good reminder that most pack openings don't hand you a card worth much more than what you paid, so treat any rip as entertainment first and a possible bonus second.
