Grading math for this card
Prefilled with the latest qualifying sale for each grade where one exists. Replace any value with your own. We never suggest what grade your copy will get.
Formula from Grading: condition, uncertainty, and economics: grading pays only if your honest chance of the high grade exceeds (raw net + cost − other-outcome net) ÷ (high-grade net − other-outcome net). The 13% fee is an editable assumption, not a quoted tariff.
About Luka Dončić Prizm RC
The 2018-19 Panini Prizm #280 Luka Doncic is his mainstream Panini Prizm rookie card in the Dallas Mavericks uniform. Collectors search for it because Prizm rookies are a major modern basketball category and because Base, Silver, and color parallels trade as different objects.
Why this card matters
Verified factThe card sits in the modern sports-card demand pattern described in ch09: the athlete matters, but the exact product, number, parallel, and grade control the comp. PSA CardFacts identifies the issue as 2018 Panini Prizm #280 Luka Doncic and records frequent PSA 9 and PSA 10 sales. The card is searched as a Luka rookie, but the useful comparison is narrower than that phrase: 2018 Panini Prizm, card #280, English, specific variant, specific grader, specific grade. [1]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factStart with card #280 and the 2018 Panini Prizm set name, then separate the standard Base card from Silver/Prizm and color parallels. PSA records a separate Red/White/Blue Prizm cert page, while CardFacts records the regular #280 page separately. That split matters because a sale of a Red/White/Blue PSA 9 is not a sale of the Base PSA 9, and a Silver/Prizm sale should not be averaged into Base comps. [1][2]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisThe largest differences come from variant and grade. PSA CardFacts showed, at access, PSA 10 Base recent prices materially above PSA 9 Base, and the Red/White/Blue cert page shows a different comparable pool. For modern Prizm rookies, surface, centering, and print issues can matter even when the card is freshly opened, so a raw card should not be valued as a guaranteed PSA 10. Use sold comps by exact variant, grader, and grade, then exclude lots and mixed parallels. [1][2][3]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare against official references and grading records; use multiple checks; do not rely on one photo or one database lookup. For slabbed copies, match the certification record to the card number, year, subject, grade, and variant wording, then compare the holder and images when available. Do not perform destructive tests. PSA warns that copied cert numbers exist, so a valid number is only one screening step, not complete authentication of the physical slab. [2][4]
Telling the versions apart
| Version | How to identify it |
|---|---|
| Base | Card #280 with standard Prizm design and no added Prizm/Silver or color-parallel label on a grading record. |
| Silver Prizm | Often cataloged by PSA as Prizm; reflective silver finish. Do not merge with the base #280 sales. |
| Other parallels | Color and insert-channel variants such as Red/White/Blue, Blue Ice, Fast Break, Choice, and numbered parallels must be priced as their exact parallel. |
