⤵ Sell · next 3 monthsIts one sale in the last 3 months, $40, was far above the about $21 it sold for in the nine months before. After a jump like this the next sales usually came in lower than the jump sale, though well above the old price (1,655 cards since 2019). The set is rising, but this card has already jumped well ahead of it.

🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Trending Up
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
  • 20 recorded sales · 8 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • Its last few sales went $30 → $26 → $20 → $18 → $40 — a clear march higher.
  • Median moved +104% across the window ($11 → $21).
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($40 on 2026-10-03) landed 29% above our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 468 of this card, and only 8.3% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
  • Net-net, the momentum points up — real buyers are paying more, more often. Not a promise, just what the garbage is telling us.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Grade it

Only about 1 in 12 copies of this card get a 10; across every grade, a graded copy should be worth about $130, more than the $92 it costs to grade plus the $12 raw copy you give up.

How these numbers work
All-in cost $92: PSA Standard tier fee $60 per card, insured shipping to PSA ~$12, PSA insured return shipping ~$20. Sending it to your PSA Vault instead skips return shipping (vault intake and storage are free): ~$72 all-in, so a graded copy would net ~$58.
Grade odds (this card, 468 PSA-graded): 10 · 8%, 9 · 27%, 8 · 30%, 7 or lower · 35%. People send their best copies, so a random raw copy usually grades a bit lower.
Values when it comes back (~95 days, about Feb 12, 2027): today's values (the set has no clear 3-month trend).
Expected value if graded = each grade's chance × its value, minus the all-in cost. A guide, not a guarantee — centering and corners on your copy decide the grade.
