1998 Topps Matt Stairs Devil Rays Inaugural #16 value & prices

The 1998 Topps Matt Stairs Devil Rays Inaugural #16 is a Baseball card (Devil Rays Inaugural parallel) released in 1998. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $0.25.

An ungraded copy is worth around $0.25, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $4.48 and a pristine BGS 10 around $6.00. That's roughly a 18× 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?

The spread between raw ($0.25) and top-graded ($4.48) copies is fairly tight, so grading this card only makes financial sense for truly flawless copies — or for collectors who simply prefer slabbed cards for protection and display.
