Card # 1a
Garbage Pail Kids
TCA Value iTCAxis Value is a recency-weighted market value from REAL sales of this exact card+grade (recent comps count most, outliers stripped) — steadier and harder to game than a single 'last sale', which can be one lucky auction or a shill bid. When a card has few or no recent comps, we estimate transparently from its own older sales, its other grades, and comparable cards (same subject/set/rarity tier), factoring subject trend and scarcity — and we LABEL it as an estimate until real sales arrive.

🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Trending Up
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard: Liquidity read: 10 recorded sales on file (2 in the last year), trading only a few times a year — a moderate-confidence sample. The recent trail reads $14,544 → $14,544 → $13,700 → $9,200 → $22,323 — a clear march higher. Across the trailing window the median has moved +437% ($14,544 vs $2,708). Census check: PSA has graded 1,456 of this card, and only 1.6% come back a 10 — a genuine condition rarity. Net-net, the momentum points up — real buyers are paying more, more often. Not a promise, just what the garbage is telling us.
