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…
Cooling Off
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
- 8 recorded sales · 4 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
- Its last few sales went $35 → $18 → $20 → $10 → $25 — a steady drift lower.
- Median moved -38% across the window ($30 → $19).
- Census check: PSA has graded 602 of this card, and only 9.8% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
- 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.

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 ~$33.
Grade odds (this card, 602 PSA-graded): 10 · 10%, 9 · 31%, 8 · 29%, 7 or lower · 30%. 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.
