Card # 87b
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.

🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Cooling Off
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard: Liquidity read: 4 recorded sales on file (3 in the last year), trading only a few times a year — a limited-confidence sample. The recent trail reads $30 → $10 → $9 → $10 — a steady drift lower. Across the trailing window the median has moved -55% ($9 vs $20). Census check: PSA has graded 216 of this card, and only 16.2% 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.
