The 2002 Topps Pristine Yao Ming #52 is a Basketball card released in 2002. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $22.99.
An ungraded copy is worth around $22.99, a PSA 9 around $45.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $70.75 and a pristine BGS 10 around $92.00. That's roughly a 3.1× 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 ($22.99) and top-graded ($70.75) 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.
