The 1989 Topps Checklist 265-396 #396 is a Football card released in 1989. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.90.

An ungraded copy is worth around $1.90, a PSA 9 around $24.93, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $123.11 and a pristine BGS 10 around $160.00. That's roughly a 65× 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 $1.90 and top grades reaching $123.11, 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.
