🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Steady
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
  • 13 recorded sales · 5 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • Following the trash: $80 → $60 → $50 → $42 → $40 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 64 of this card, and only 39.1% 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 $21 — less than the $92 it costs to grade. Even a 10 ($44) would leave you about -$48 after costs, not more than raw.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $27, is $65 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$2 (from 29 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, 65 PSA-graded): 10 · 38%, 9 · 32%, 8 · 17%, 7 or lower · 12%. People send their best copies, so a random raw copy usually grades a bit lower.
Values when it comes back (~95 days, about Feb 13, 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.
