🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Too Few Recent Sales
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
  • 5 recorded sales · 2 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · limited-confidence sample.
  • Following the trash: $24 → $20 → $6 → $30 → $35 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($35 on 2026-09-03) landed 46% above our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 172 of this card, and only 9.9% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
  • None

🧬 Should I slab it?

Only if you're confident it's a 10

Only about 1 in 10 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $78 — less than the $92 it costs to grade.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $90, is $2 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$5 (from 19 raw sales)
VerdictOnly if you're confident it's a 10

Break-even: you need about a 12% chance of a PSA 10 (this card: 10%).

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 ~$18.
Grade odds (this card, 172 PSA-graded): 10 · 10%, 9 · 43%, 8 · 21%, 7 or lower · 26%. 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.
