Varoom #117 comes out of the Korean Ruler of the Black Flame set, and while it's not a flashy chase card, it's the kind of pull that keeps casual collectors checking prices out of curiosity. If you're searching for a Varoom value read, here's the short version: this is a modest, honest card with a raw price around $2, and that's exactly what makes it fun to track rather than stressful to chase.

The collector's take on Varoom

Is Varoom worth grading?

So is Varoom worth grading? Let's talk numbers first. A raw copy sits at $2, a Grade 9 comes in around $15, and a PSA 10 tops out at $23, which works out to about 11.4 times the raw price. That jump looks appealing on paper, but grading fees alone can eat up most or all of that gain on a card this affordable, and gem mint corners and centering are never a guarantee no matter how clean the card looks in hand. If you already own the card and love it, sending it in can be a fun bit of collector pride, but treating this one as an investment play is a tougher sell at these price points.

How rare is Varoom?

We don't have hard population numbers for Varoom in front of us, and that's worth being upfront about rather than guessing. What we can say is that Korean sets like Ruler of the Black Flame tend to see smaller circulation than their English counterparts, which naturally makes any single card within them a bit less common to stumble across. Scarcity like that can support long term value, but with a card sitting at $2 raw, it hasn't translated into anything dramatic yet, and that's perfectly normal for cards outside the chase tier.

Where can you pull Varoom?

This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack sites rather than just guessing at odds. Varoom has shown up 200 or more times across tilt-rips and courtyard, with the biggest recorded pull landing at $11. We've also seen it turn up in the Pokemon Dime Pack and the Wildcard Basic Pack, so if you're hoping to pull one yourself, those are the kinds of packs where it's actually been showing its face. Just remember, opening packs is a gamble by nature, and most rips don't pay for themselves, so chase Varoom because you enjoy the hunt, not because the math promises a payout.

Questions people ask

How much is Varoom worth?+

A raw, ungraded Varoom is valued at $2. Grading can push that higher, with a Grade 9 worth $15 and a PSA 10 worth $23, but the raw price is where most casual owners will land.

Is Varoom worth grading?+

It depends on your goals. The jump from $2 raw to $23 for a PSA 10 sounds nice, that's about 11.4 times the raw value, but grading fees and the real difficulty of hitting gem mint often outweigh the gain on a lower value card like this one.

How much is a PSA 10 Varoom worth?+

A PSA 10 Varoom is valued at $23, compared to $15 for a Grade 9 and $2 for a raw copy. It's a solid grading multiplier, just remember the cost of grading itself before sending one off.
