🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Too Few Recent Sales
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
  • 5 recorded sales · 1 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · limited-confidence sample.
  • Following the trash: $20 → $10 → $9 → $6 → $6 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($6 on 2025-11-12) landed 60% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 26 of this card, and only 23.1% come back a 10 — gems fairly readily.
  • None

🧬 Should I slab it?

Only if you're confident it's a 10

Only about 1 in 3 copies of 1987 Original Series 10 cards get a 10, and a 9 is worth $15 — less than the $92 it costs to grade.

Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $47, is $45 short of the $92 all-in cost)
Raw value today$3 (from 5 raw sales)
VerdictOnly if you're confident it's a 10

Break-even: you need about a 77% chance of a PSA 10 (1987 Original Series 10 cards: 33%).

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 (1987 Original Series 10 cards, 2,463 PSA-graded): 10 · 33%, 9 · 39%, 8 · 14%, 7 or lower · 15%. 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.
