What is the all-time high price for Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon?

+

TickerMint began tracking Yu-Gi-Oh prices on 2026-09-16, after Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon came out, so these are the highest and lowest prices since we began tracking (2026-09-16), not all-time records. In TickerMint's daily data (since September 2026), the TCGplayer market price for Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon [Unlimited] (all conditions) peaked at $363.23 (2026-09-16) and bottomed at $355.50 (2026-10-17).

Is Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon #RP02-EN096 worth grading?

+

Grading Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon #RP02-EN096 pays only if you expect a 10: PSA 10 copies are listed from $799.99 on eBay (eBay asks checked Oct 24, 2026) vs $355.50 raw (TCGplayer market), and after a $25 grading fee, $10 shipping and 13% selling fees you'd need about 1 in 11 copies to grade a 10 to break even (a 10% chance). That assumes a 9 or lower sells like a raw copy. "Listed from" is the lowest current PSA 10 asking price on eBay, not a sale, and asks can sit above what copies actually sell for. Whether your copy grades a 10 depends on its centering, corners, edges and surface.
