🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Steady
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
  • 30 recorded sales · 10 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • Its last few sales went $90 → $80 → $80 → $50 → $70 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 226 of this card, and only 7.5% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
  • Net-net, it's holding its ground — steady demand, no fireworks either way.

Automated analysis generated from this card’s real recorded sales and PSA population data — no opinions, no predictions guaranteed. Entertainment and research only, not financial advice.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Grade it

Only about 1 in 13 copies of this card get a 10; across every grade, a graded copy should be worth about $197, more than the $92 it costs to grade plus the $20 raw copy you give up.

Expected value if graded$105 (after $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$20 (from 21 raw sales)
VerdictGrade it

Break-even: you need about a 1% chance of a PSA 10 (this card: 8%).

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 ~$125.
Grade odds (this card, 226 PSA-graded): 10 · 8%, 9 · 23%, 8 · 35%, 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.
