🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Trending Up
The Garbologist sniffed around the sales pile.
  • 8 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $22 → $20 → $38 → $45 → $32 — a clear march higher.
  • Median moved +94% across the window ($18 → $35).
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($32 on 2026-07-13) landed 22% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 228 of this card, and only 9.2% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
  • Net-net, the momentum points up — real buyers are paying more, more often. Not a promise, just what the garbage is telling us.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Grade it

Only about 1 in 11 copies of this card get a 10; across every grade, a graded copy should be worth about $228, more than the $92 it costs to grade plus the $16 raw copy you give up.

Expected value if graded$136 (after $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$16 (from 23 raw sales)
VerdictGrade it

Grading pays even without a 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 ~$156.
Grade odds (this card, 228 PSA-graded): 10 · 9%, 9 · 26%, 8 · 27%, 7 or lower · 38%. 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.
