Price history · PSA 10
On-the-record sales go back as far as PSA reports them — late 2017 for GPK — plus eBay-tracked and raw sales as they land.
🗑️ The Garbologist says…
Cooling Off
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
- 16 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
- Its last few sales went $40 → $65 → $25 → $50 → $52 — ran up to a peak of $65, then cooled back off.
- Median moved -20% across the window ($44 → $35).
- Census check: PSA has graded 64 of this card, and only 54.7% 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.

🧬 Should I slab it?
Keep it rawAbout 5 in 10 copies of this card get a 10, and a 9 is worth $19 — less than the $92 it costs to grade. Even a 10 ($48) would leave you about -$44 after costs, not more than raw.
Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $34, is $58 short of the $92 all-in cost)

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, 64 PSA-graded): 10 · 55%, 9 · 25%, 8 · 8%, 7 or lower · 13%. 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.
