The 2005 Bowman Yao Ming Chrome #99 is a Basketball card (Chrome parallel) released in 2005. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $3.25.
An ungraded copy is worth around $3.25, a PSA 9 around $152.50, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $183.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $238.00. That's roughly a 56× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.
Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $3.25 and top grades reaching $183.00, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.
