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.

🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Cooling Off
The Garbologist has been digging through this one's trash.
  • 6 recorded sales · 1 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $14 → $12 → $20 → $8 → $8 — ran up to a peak of $20, then cooled back off.
  • Median moved -26% across the window ($12 → $8).
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($8 on 2025-12-16) landed 27% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 19 of this card, and only 26.3% 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?

SLAB IT

About a 26% gem (PSA 10) rate on this card's own PSA pop - graded pop is self-selected (best copies get submitted), so a random raw likely grades lower. Expected value ~$44 before the $19 PSA fee (fee only - excludes shipping & insurance), ~$25 after, vs a raw copy around $6 (est.). Grading pencils out here, especially if you hit the $130 ten.
