🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Too Few Recent Sales
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
  • 14 recorded sales · 1 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $295 → $204 → $262 → $350 → $259 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 224 of this card, and only 13.8% 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 7 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $61 — 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$3 (from 18 raw sales)
VerdictOnly if you're confident it's a 10

Break-even: you need about a 23% chance of a PSA 10 (this card: 14%).

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, 227 PSA-graded): 10 · 14%, 9 · 39%, 8 · 22%, 7 or lower · 25%. 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.
