Each week I update sell-through rates for PSA 10s based on eBay sold listings — how many active listings actually closed in the last 7, 30, and 90 days. The composite score weights recent activity heavily, so this report reflects who's moving right now, not who moved six months ago.
LeBron picked the Sixers, and as with anytime there's a big signing or team change, the market responded. Basketball took back the top two spots, VJ Edgecombe had one of the biggest single-week jumps I've seen, and Caitlin continues her climb back up the sell-through rate charts. View the full rankings.
Hottest right now
1. Michael Jordan (Basketball) — 447 score
7d: 41% (559 sellers) · 30d: 53% · 90d: 52%
Jordan stays #1 for a third straight week and actually strengthened his lead with a big 24 point jump, with the 7-day rate climbing back to 41%. The market loves GOAT's right now, and it's pretty typical to see big names spike the week before the National both in value and sell-through rate as some hope to set new high comps and others are hoping to liquidate to have more cash on hand for the show.
2. LeBron James (Basketball) — 383 score
7d: 35% (712 sellers) · 30d: 47% · 90d: 48%
LeBron jumps to #2—past Ohtani and Misiorowski—after announcing he's signing with the Sixers. Speculation kept his market humming for weeks; the decision itself just poured gas on it. The interesting part to watch will be how long the spike lasts—we often see big news like this have only a couple week impact before dropping back down.
3. Shohei Ohtani (Baseball) — 378 score
7d: 36% (1,115 sellers) · 30d: 42% · 90d: 45%
Ohtani slips one spot to #3 but the underlying numbers barely moved. He's still the deepest market on the board. He's in a bit of a mini-slump, but the MLB season is long and the ups and downs happen to everone. Once he breaks out of it, it wouldn't be surprising to see him challenge for the #1 spot.
Biggest risers
VJ Edgecombe (+107 pts → 282 score)
7d: 24% (143 sellers) · 30d: 36% · 90d: 46%
Edgecombe jumped 23 spots to #10—the biggest score gain on the board by a mile. Two weeks ago he was cooling off after the Jaylen Brown trade bump. Now he's sharing a starting five with Maxey, Brown, Embiid, and LeBron. The 7-day rate at 24% is a big jump from where he was sitting in mid-July.
This is the other side of the Sixers story. LeBron gets the headlines; Edgecombe gets the hobby heat as a key young piece next to him. Again, we'll see how long the spike lasts—the Brown bump was a one week blip for VJ, but of course LeBron is a different type of market entirely.
Michael Jordan (+24 pts → 447 score)
7d: 41% (559 sellers) · 30d: 53% · 90d: 52%
Already covered above. Third week at #1, and the gap to everyone else grew.
LeBron James (+22 pts → 383 score)
7d: 35% (712 sellers) · 30d: 47% · 90d: 48%
Same story: the free-agency decision landed, and the market responded immediately. Worth noting the volume: 712 sellers in the 7-day window. Moves this size on a market that deep are meaningful.
Biggest fallers
Ben Rice (-95 pts → 223 score)
7d: 13% (23 sellers) · 30d: 36% · 90d: 58%
Rice had the steepest drop this week and fell 13 spots to #20. Two weeks ago he surged +123 on a five-homer week. Last week he cooled. This week he fell off a cliff.
Same caveat as always: 23 sellers in the 7-day window. It doesn't take many sales (or lack of them) to swing his rate hard. The 90-day number at 58% still says the longer-term market is fine. Until his graded supply deepens, he's going to keep ping-ponging between the risers and fallers lists.
James Wood (-61 pts → 229 score)
7d: 16% (146 sellers) · 30d: 38% · 90d: 44%
Wood was a back-to-back riser the last two weeks (+71, then +33) and climbed into the top 10. This week he's the second-biggest faller and sits at #18. He just hit 30 homers for the season—so this isn't a performance fade. It looks more like the market digesting two weeks of hype after a hot stretch into the All-Star break.
Junior Caminero (-53 pts → 239 score)
7d: 14% (125 sellers) · 30d: 48% · 90d: 46%
Three straight weeks as a faller. He was #3 three weeks ago. Now he's #16. The 7-day rate dropped again, from 22% last week to 14%.
He's still mashing—tied near the top of the HR leaderboard, and he came back from that All-Star Game scare and went deep in Boston. This is a market cooldown, not a player story. The 30- and 90-day numbers are still solid. The short-term heat just isn't there at the moment.
Market pulse
Sport-level averages this week:
- Basketball: 180 avg score (↑4 pts) — 7d 14% · 30d 25% · 90d 36%
- Football: 171 avg score (↑4 pts) — 7d 13% · 30d 25% · 90d 33%
- Baseball: 178 avg score (↓16 pts) — 7d 13% · 30d 26% · 90d 37%
Baseball took the only real hit at the sport level, and it was a big one. Rice, Wood, and Caminero all landing in the fallers will do that. Basketball finally stopped its off-season slide, mostly on the back of the LeBron/Edgecombe news. Football posted another week of gains as training camps get underway.
Other notable shifts
A few rank changes worth watching even though they didn't make the top-three mover lists:
- Jacob Misiorowski dropped out of the top three for the first time since May, landing at #4. He's back pitching after the fatigue layoff—short starts, managed innings, but the 30-day rate softened from 49% to 44% and the market cooled while he was out. His market remains very strong.
- Ken Griffey Jr held near the top at #6 after last week's big climb
- Kobe Bryant and Stephen Curry both moved into the top 10—vintage and modern GOATs riding the same wave as Jordan
- CJ Stroud gave back last week's +36 bounce and slipped to #44. Looks like the one-week blip I suspected.
- Paul Skenes and Bobby Witt Jr both dropped double-digit spots as baseball cooled a bit.
- Caitlin Clark continues to steadily climb back up the chart, moving up to #11. Throughout her last year in college and first year in the WNBA, she was a mainstay in the top 5, usually in the top 3. She's averaging a career high in points, and shooting at a career high percentage. It'll be interesting to see if she can reclaim her spot in that top 10.
