🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Too Few Recent Sales
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
  • 6 recorded sales · 2 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $383 → $512 → $1,150 → $1,425 → $2,150 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($2,150 on 2026-07-30) landed 85% above our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 194 of this card, and only 8.2% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
  • None

🧬 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 $183, more than the $92 it costs to grade plus the $15 raw copy you give up.

Expected value if graded$91 (after $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$15 (from 30 raw sales)

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 ~$111.
Grade odds (this card, 195 PSA-graded): 10 · 8%, 9 · 25%, 8 · 30%, 7 or lower · 37%. People send their best copies, so a random raw copy usually grades a bit lower.
Values when it comes back (~95 days, about Feb 13, 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.
