TCGplayer prices via Scryfall, updated October 27, 2026. Raw, ungraded, the highest-priced finish of each card. A market price, not a sale.
Is it worth grading?
21 cards in 2009 Magic Zendikar list at $30 or more raw on TCGplayer. Grading at PSA runs about $25 to $30 a card once shipping and insurance both ways are counted, so those 21 are the cards where a high grade can pay for itself. For the rest, a grade usually costs more than it adds.
The deciding question is condition, and that is what the scanner reads: photograph the front and back and The Hobby Treasury scores centering, corners, edges and surface, gives a PSA-style estimate, and makes the worth-submitting call before you pay a fee.
What the scanner checks on your copy
The grade is an AI estimate to help you decide, never an official grade. The app also flags reprint and counterfeit red flags.
