🗑️ The Garbologist says…
Too Thin To Call
The Garbologist sniffed around the sales pile.
- Only 1 recorded sale on the books — not enough for a trend without kidding ourselves. The last one changed hands at $120 on 2025-04-23.
- With this little to go on, the honest answer is we can't call a direction — one auction would swing the whole read.

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 ~$32.
Grade odds (all 2017 GPK cards, 3,229 PSA-graded): 10 · 56%, 9 · 31%, 8 · 8%, 7 or lower · 5%. People send their best copies, so a random raw copy usually grades a bit lower.
Values when it comes back (~95 days, about Jan 21, 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.
