Price history · PSA 5
On-the-record sales go back as far as PSA reports them — late 2017 for GPK — plus eBay-tracked and raw sales as they land.
🗑️ The Garbologist says…
Steady
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
- 8 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
- Its last few sales went $28 → $20 → $17 → $25 → $17 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
- Heads up: the last recorded sale ($17 on 2026-07-07) landed 32% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
- Census check: PSA has graded 351 of this card, and only 3.7% come back a 10 — a genuine condition rarity.
- Net-net, it's holding its ground — steady demand, no fireworks either way.

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 ~$72.
Grade odds (this card, 351 PSA-graded): 10 · 4%, 9 · 24%, 8 · 38%, 7 or lower · 34%. 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.
