🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Steady
The Garbologist has been digging through this one's trash.
  • 15 recorded sales · 4 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $30 → $19 → $18 → $28 → $30 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 133 of this card, and only 39.8% come back a 10 — gems fairly readily.
  • Net-net, it's holding its ground — steady demand, no fireworks either way.

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.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Keep it raw

About 1 in 3 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $28 — less than the $92 it costs to grade. Even a 10 ($58) would leave you about -$34 after costs, not more than raw.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $36, is $56 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$2 (from 23 raw sales)
VerdictKeep it raw

Even a PSA 10 would not beat the raw value.

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 ~under $0.
Grade odds (this card, 133 PSA-graded): 10 · 40%, 9 · 27%, 8 · 14%, 7 or lower · 20%. 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 +10% (half the set's 3-month rise of 25%, capped at +10%).
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.
