🗑️ The Garbologist says…
Too Few Recent Sales
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
- 3 recorded sales · 1 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · limited-confidence sample.
- Its last few sales went $4 → $25 → $8 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
- Heads up: the last recorded sale ($8 on 2026-04-10) landed 60% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
- None

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 (all 2022 Chrome cards, 2,590 PSA-graded): 10 · 36%, 9 · 49%, 8 · 11%, 7 or lower · 4%. People send their best copies, so a random raw copy usually grades a bit lower.
Values when it comes back (~95 days, about Feb 13, 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.
