Price history · PSA 9
On-the-record sales go back as far as PSA reports them — late 2017 for GPK — plus eBay-tracked and raw sales as they land.
🗑️ The Garbologist says…
No Sale In 12 Months
Straight from the Garbologist's clipboard:
- 7 recorded sales · 0 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
- Following the trash: $26 → $22 → $43 → $16 → $16 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
- Heads up: the last recorded sale ($16 on 2024-09-21) landed 75% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
- Net-net, nobody has sold this card at this grade in the last 12 months, so the trail above is history, not today's market. We don't call a direction until it sells again.

🧬 Should I slab it?
Keep it rawAbout 1 in 2 copies of 2021 Sapphire Edition Aqua cards get a 10, and a 9 is worth $63 — less than the $92 it costs to grade. Even a 10 ($87) would leave you about -$5 after costs, not more than raw.
Expected value if gradedunder $0 (the likely slab, $71, is $21 short of the $92 all-in cost)

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 (2021 Sapphire Edition Aqua cards, 285 PSA-graded): 10 · 45%, 9 · 47%, 8 · 6%, 7 or lower · 2%. 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.
