The 1989 Pro Set Barry Sanders #494 is a Football card released in 1989. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $4.99.
An ungraded copy is worth around $4.99, a PSA 9 around $38.67, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $212.50 and a pristine BGS 10 around $276.00. That's roughly a 43× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.
Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $4.99 and top grades reaching $212.50, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.
