Quick Facts

PSA Pop by Condition

PSA tracks Scuba Diver populations independently for loose carts, complete-in-box (CIB), and factory-sealed copies — collectors price each condition separately because rarity and demand diverge sharply. Tables below show the grade-tier breakdown per condition, aggregated across 1 variant PSA recognizes for this title.

Current Market Prices

All prices below come from PriceCharting’s public catalog as of this page’s last update. PriceCharting calculates its values from completed sales on eBay and its own marketplace — independent of any data on this page. The Sealed column reflects PriceCharting’s “manual-only” / new tier — factory-sealed retail at average condition; specific graded-sealed prices vary sharply by numeric grade + seal letter (use the Sealed eBay browse link below for grade-specific comps).

Heritage Graded Sales

Heritage Auctions sold results below are real auction transactions for Scuba Diver on Atari 2600. They complement the PriceCharting loose / CIB / sealed benchmarks above; they are not estimates and they are not blended into PriceCharting’s ungraded market prices.

Summary rows are title-level Heritage sale signals, sorted by format, recency, and realized-price signal. PSA production variants can price differently, so the sale records keep Heritage’s own variant notes visible instead of pretending every auction lot maps cleanly to a PSA variant row.

High-grade games can trade years apart, so older auction records stay visible; treat the latest-sale date as part of the comp, not just the dollar amount.

Why Scuba Diver Matters for Grading

Exactly one PSA-graded copy of Scuba Diver for Atari 2600 exists on the population census. That makes this title a true population-one rarity in PSA’s video games database. Notable: every graded copy is in the cib condition — collectors clearly favor that condition tier for this title, and the other conditions are either ungraded territory or grade-and-flip opportunities. The sealed-to-loose price ratio is roughly 17× — sealed copies trade at $525 while loose carts move around $30. That spread means a fresh sealed find is the move; raw cart flips have thinner margins after grading fees.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Scuba Diver Atari 2600 worth grading?

Strong yes for clean copies. With only 1 graded copy on record, Scuba Diver is squarely in the rare-population tier for Atari 2600 — and PSA grading adds meaningful provenance on titles with this little supply. Grade-and-hold is the play; flipping mid-grade copies thins margins fast.

How rare is a graded CIB copy of Scuba Diver?

Exactly one — 1 PSA-graded CIB copy of Scuba Diver on the census. Population-one rarity for collectors who care about that distinction.

Should I buy a graded or raw copy of Scuba Diver?

Depends on your goal. Graded copies cost more upfront but come with PSA’s authenticity + condition guarantee — the right move for buy-and-hold collectors. Raw copies are cheaper but require condition assessment yourself, and the grading lottery means a $50 raw cart can come back as a $25 PSA 7 OR a $200 PSA 9.4. Use the per-condition pop and price data above to calculate expected value before you commit.

Why does PSA track multiple variants of Scuba Diver?

PSA’s database currently shows one tracked variant for Scuba Diver on Atari 2600. That doesn’t mean only one variant exists — production codes that haven’t been submitted yet won’t appear on the census. Check the back of your cartridge for production-location markings (“Made in Japan”, “Made in Mexico”) and the box for ESRB-rating placement to identify your specific variant.
