🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Cooling Off
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
  • 16 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $20 → $22 → $20 → $40 → $18 — ran up to a peak of $41, then cooled back off.
  • Median moved -10% across the window ($22 → $20).
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($18 on 2026-06-12) landed 45% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 232 of this card, and only 17.2% come back a 10 — gems fairly readily.
  • Net-net, the heat is coming off — recent sales are softening. Could be a breather, could be a top; the trash doesn't say which.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Only if you're confident it's a 10

Only about 1 in 6 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $64 — less than the $92 it costs to grade.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $73, is $19 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$4 (from 23 raw sales)
VerdictOnly if you're confident it's a 10

Break-even: you need about a 30% chance of a PSA 10 (this card: 17%).

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 ~$1.
Grade odds (this card, 234 PSA-graded): 10 · 17%, 9 · 38%, 8 · 26%, 7 or lower · 19%. 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.
