Card # 138a
Garbage Pail Kids
TCA Value iTCAxis Value is a recency-weighted market value from REAL sales of this exact card+grade (recent comps count most, outliers stripped) — steadier and harder to game than a single 'last sale', which can be one lucky auction or a shill bid. When a card has few or no recent comps, we estimate transparently from its own older sales, its other grades, and comparable cards (same subject/set/rarity tier), factoring subject trend and scarcity — and we LABEL it as an estimate until real sales arrive.

Cooling Off
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card. Liquidity read: 10 recorded sales on file (1 in the last year), trading only a few times a year — a moderate-confidence sample. Its last few sales went $56 → $80 → $86 → $75 → $125 — ran up to a peak of $371, then cooled back off. Census check: PSA has graded 96 of this card, and only 42.7% 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.

Automated analysis generated from this card’s real recorded sales and PSA population data — no opinions, no predictions guaranteed. Entertainment and research only, not financial advice.
