The 2004 Topps Chrome Rafer Alston Black Refractor #144 is a Basketball card (Black Refractor parallel) released in 2004. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $3.38.
An ungraded copy is worth around $3.38, a PSA 9 around $100.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $120.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $156.00. That's roughly a 36× 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 $3.38 and top grades reaching $120.00, 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.
