Card # 9a
Garbage Pail Kids
TCA Value iTCAxis 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…

Trending Up
The Garbologist has been digging through this one's trash. Liquidity read: 24 recorded sales on file (17 in the last year), trading every few months — a high-confidence sample. Following the trash: $90 → $37 → $89 → $75 → $135 — a clear march higher. Across the trailing window the median has moved +21% ($75 vs $60). Heads up: the last recorded sale ($135 on 2026-07-14) landed 83% above our current value — weigh it as a single data point. Net-net, the momentum points up — real buyers are paying more, more often. Not a promise, just what the garbage is telling us.
