Giratina V

Giratina V sits in Lost Origin, part of the Sword & Shield Era era on Cardboard Assets. Raw spot is $856 per the most recent manually verified value, last refreshed Jul 13, 2026.

I'm scoring this a 73/100 — PLAY. The math: $1,724 expected value at PSA Regular tier, less raw cost $856, less $25 grading fee, less $12 return shipping, less $229 eBay fee = +$603 net per copy. ROI works out to 70% on the raw cost basis.

PSA Regular tier turnaround runs about 65 days. Annualized for capital velocity, that's roughly +396% APR — useful framing if you're thinking about this as a capital allocation, not a one-shot trade.

Pop velocity is muted (0.0% in 30d), which I read as a positive signal — the gem-rate denominator isn't ballooning, so existing PSA 10 comps should hold.

Sourcing raw: at $856, source on TCGplayer near-mint listings or eBay BIN. Pictures matter — request high-res scans of corners and edges before buying. Anything obviously off-center isn't a Grade 10 candidate.

Risk to size: grading is one-way. Grading fees aren't refundable, the round-trip eats 65 days of capital, and the comp data lags real-time market shifts. For comparable plays in the same era, look at Rayquaza VMAX and Gengar VMAX. Numbers above pull from PSA POP Report, recent eBay sold listings, and live TCGplayer market prices.
