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.

🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Trending Up
The Garbologist sniffed around the sales pile.
  • 20 recorded sales · 7 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • Following the trash: $15 → $32 → $34 → $60 → $47 — a clear march higher.
  • Median moved +20% across the window ($24 → $28).
  • Census check: PSA has graded 278 of this card, and only 12.6% come back a 10 — tough to gem.
  • Net-net, the momentum points up — real buyers are paying more, more often. Not a promise, just what the garbage is telling us.

🧬 Should I slab it?

SLAB IT

About a 13% gem (PSA 10) rate on this card's own PSA pop - graded pop is self-selected (best copies get submitted), so a random raw likely grades lower. Expected value ~$96 before the $29 PSA fee (fee only - excludes shipping & insurance), ~$67 after, vs a raw copy around $3 (est.). Grading pencils out here, especially if you hit the $417 ten.
