🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Steady
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
  • 3 recorded sales · 1 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · limited-confidence sample.
  • Its last few sales went $10 → $8 → $10 — holding a steady range.
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($10 on 2026-10-14) landed 25% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 215 of this card, and only 18.6% come back a 10 — gems fairly readily.
  • Net-net, it's holding its ground — steady demand, no fireworks either way.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Only if you're confident it's a 10

Only about 1 in 5 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $62 — less than the $92 it costs to grade.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $77, is $15 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$4 (from 16 raw sales)
VerdictOnly if you're confident it's a 10

Break-even: you need about a 29% chance of a PSA 10 (this card: 19%).

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 ~$5.
Grade odds (this card, 215 PSA-graded): 10 · 19%, 9 · 40%, 8 · 25%, 7 or lower · 17%. 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.
