Below grade 10 the guide publishes one estimate across all graders, so these rows are not PSA, BGS, CGC or SGC prices, and a low slabbed grade can sit below a clean raw copy. Grade 10 is estimated per grader.
Each point is the last stored observation that day for this printing, condition, grader, autograph status and source. Gaps mean no observation; guide estimates and asking prices are not completed sales.

SuperCatch Expert Analysis
Market Value Insight
This base card sits at a lower price tier within Adam Wainwright’s broader market, reflecting its status as a standard issue rather than a premium parallel or insert. While the player holds significant career significance with the St. Louis Cardinals, this specific 2012 Topps Series 2 iteration trades at a modest level due to its lack of special attributes or grading premiums.
Rarity Breakdown
The card carries no scarcity mechanics such as serial numbering, short printing, or parallel status, meaning it exists as a mass-produced base item. Supply is effectively unlimited relative to collector demand, as there are no limited edition constraints or one-of-one designations to restrict availability.
Investment Outlook
As a non-rookie base card from a standard set, this item lacks the rookie-card premium mechanics that typically drive long-term value appreciation. Collector demand is likely limited to those completing specific base set requirements, resulting in a stable but low-growth outlook compared to rare parallels or significant milestone cards.
