Recorded market figure$231.16USDRecorded TCGplayer daily market figure for this printing, dated to the day we recorded it and not to a day anyone observed a copy. The recorded ladder prices a played copy above a mint one, so its Near Mint rung is not a market reading, and so moonstone publishes it as a recorded market figure of unstated condition and not as this card's Near Mint price.

How much is Pikachu ex 238/191 from Surging Sparks worth?

$231.16 raw, recorded November 13, 2026. That is TCGplayer's daily market figure for this printing, and the source states no condition for it, so moonstone does not publish it as a Near Mint price. It is not an asking price moonstone sets.

What is a PSA 10 Pikachu ex 238/191 worth?

$799, a 90-day median of $799 across 246 sales we have verified as this card. That is 3.5x the raw price.

How many Pikachu ex 238/191 has PSA graded?

32,324 copies sit on the PSA registry across all grades, and 35% of them came back a 10 (11,391 tens).

Is it worth grading Pikachu ex 238/191?

At $231.16 plus PSA Standard $59.99 ($291.15 all-in), against a $799 PSA 10 and a $250 PSA 9 each netted for eBay's 13.25% selling fee, you need a 16% chance of a 10 to break even. The registry's recorded gem rate is 35%. Shipping and insurance, to PSA and to the buyer, are not counted. That is arithmetic on recorded figures and published fees, not advice.
