Price by grade
What the card is worth at each tier — like against like.
Only the raw/ungraded tier is sourced today. Graded tiers are listed so you can see exactly what is and is not covered — an empty row means we hold no sales for that grade, never that the card is worthless there.
| Tier | Price | Basis | Obs. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Raw (ungraded) | $0.67 | market estimate (guide) | 2 |

Cross-market comparisons and arbitrage routes elsewhere on this page are computed within one tier — PSA 10 against PSA 10, raw against raw. A route is never built from two different grades.

The 2 most recent — confirmed sales first, then estimates; distinct price points, identical re-ingested rows count once, never stacked. Rows tagged guide are marketplace price-guide points (TCGplayer market / Cardmarket trend), not confirmed sales; rows tagged est. are inferred from a listing that left the market, not directly-recorded sales.
