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.

Steady
The Garbologist sniffed around the sales pile.
  • 3 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · limited-confidence sample.
  • Following the trash: $190 → $195 → $195 — holding a steady range.
  • Net-net, it's holding its ground — steady demand, no fireworks either way.

Automated analysis generated from this card’s real recorded sales and PSA population data — no opinions, no predictions guaranteed. Entertainment and research only, not financial advice.

🧬 Should I slab it?

SLAB IT

About a 54% gem (PSA 10) rate on the 2022 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 ~$288 before the $80 PSA fee (fee only - excludes shipping & insurance), ~$208 after, vs a raw copy around $80 from 5 raw sales. Grading pencils out here, especially if you hit the $363 ten.
