How we weigh the odds
We weigh every outcome by how often PSA-graded copies of this card come back a 10, 9 or 8. The average over all outcomes is the last line below.
Pop reports count submitted cards, and people mostly submit their best copies, so the real odds for a random raw card are likely a bit lower.

Short answer: no, grading Vileplume does not pay off on our numbers (verdict: SKIP IT).
Vileplume is a Grass-type card from Southern Islands, released in 2001, illustrated by Naoyo Kimura. Vileplume (Southern Islands, #17) sells for about $110.02 raw and around $12,501 as a PSA 10, a gap of roughly 11,263% before grading costs. PSA has graded 2,259 copies, and about 3% of them received a PSA 10. A PSA 9 sells for around $755.59, so a 9 still beats the raw price. The raw price has risen about 13% over the last 30 days. Our model gives a 3% chance of a PSA 10. If a copy grades a 10 it nets about $9,757 after the $999.00 grading fee, shipping and selling fees; if it does not, expect to lose about $807.42, so grading pays off when more than 8% of copies hit a 10. Whether it is worth grading depends on the condition of your copy, the grading fee and how often this card reaches a 10; the grader on CardHunt gives a free AI estimate from a front and back photo.
