GPK Price Guide Value iGPK Price Guide 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.

Cooling Off
The Garbologist sniffed around the sales pile.
  • 4 recorded sales · 1 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · limited-confidence sample.
  • Following the trash: $93 → $30 → $20 → $45 — a steady drift lower.
  • Median moved -47% across the window ($61 → $32).
  • 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.

NO RAW PRICE YET

About a 36% gem (PSA 10) rate on the 1987 GPK PSA pop (all sets that year) - graded pop is self-selected (best copies get submitted), so a random raw likely grades lower. Expected value ~$23 before the $80 PSA fee (fee only - excludes shipping & insurance), ~$-57 after. No raw (ungraded) sale of this card is on record, so there is no raw price to compare grading against yet.
