🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Cooling Off
The Garbologist has been digging through this one's trash.
  • 11 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $40 → $35 → $35 → $47 → $36 — ran up to a peak of $108, then cooled back off.
  • Median moved -20% across the window ($48 → $38).
  • Census check: PSA has graded 61 of this card, and only 42.6% 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.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Keep it raw

About 1 in 2 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $17 — less than the $92 it costs to grade. Even a 10 ($41) would leave you about -$51 after costs, not more than raw.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $26, is $66 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$2 (from 15 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, 62 PSA-graded): 10 · 44%, 9 · 24%, 8 · 16%, 7 or lower · 16%. 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.
