This Pikachu is up over 100% in two months

No, this isn’t a $2 card that went to $4. Pikachu 131/091 from Paldean Fates was a $37 card just two months. Market price is now $79.95, up 116% in two months.

It is now the 4^(th) highest priced card in Paldean Fates by raw market price and just yesterday slid into the #2 spot for highest-priced card based on PSA 10 prices. Yesterday, three PSA 10s sold on eBay for $850, $949.99, and $949.99 before tax.

What does everyone think? Would you pay $80 for that Pikachu? Or $950 for the PSA 10?

Please help me find more of this type of card

I'm looking for raw cards that I can send in for grading that meet three criteria.

  1. The PSA 10 price is at least 3x the raw market price and preferably 5x or more for lower priced cards.

  2. The raw price + grading fees is less than the PSA 9 price. This way if the card doesn't come back a 10, I wouldn't lose money sending it in for grading.

  3. The raw price is under $300 and preferably under $200.

An example is Seismitoad #105 from Black Bolt. Also, Roaring Moon ex #162 from Prismatic and Charizard ex #234 from Paldean Fates, though the Charizard barely meets the criteria.

Any others?
