🗑️ The Garbologist says…
Too Thin To Call
The Garbologist sniffed around the sales pile.
- Nobody's actually sold this exact card and grade on record, so there's no live market to read — the price you see is a modeled estimate, not a realized sale.
- With this little to go on, the honest answer is we can't call a direction — one auction would swing the whole read.

How these numbers work
All-in cost $105: PSA Standard tier fee $60 per card (expected $73 with PSA's upcharge if it comes back worth more than the tier allows), 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): ~$85 all-in, so a graded copy would net ~$209.
Grade odds (this card, 157 PSA-graded): 10 · 4%, 9 · 24%, 8 · 29%, 7 or lower · 42%. 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.
