The 1985 O-Pee-Chee Ray Bourque #40 is a Hockey card released in 1985. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $2.15.

An ungraded copy is worth around $2.15, a PSA 9 around $44.69, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $323.20 and a pristine BGS 10 around $420.00. That's roughly a 150× 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 $2.15 and top grades reaching $323.20, 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.
