Current Market Prices
All prices below come from PriceCharting’s public catalog as of this page’s last update.

The Sealed column is PriceCharting’s “New” price — 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).

All 2 PSA-tracked variants share the same PriceCharting prices because PriceCharting indexes at the title level, not the variant level. Variant-specific pricing surfaces on eBay sold-comp data — check the Sealed / CIB / Loose browse links below for variant-aware market signals.
Heritage Graded Sales
Heritage Auctions sold results below are real auction transactions for Sonic Advance on Game Boy Advance. They complement the PriceCharting loose / CIB / sealed benchmarks above; they are not estimates and they are not blended into PriceCharting’s ungraded market prices.
The first table sums up this game’s Heritage sales by format. The sale records keep Heritage’s own variant notes, because a lot listing doesn’t always say which PSA variant it is.
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.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Factory sealed (Thq Tm Logo Early Production) | CGC 9.4 A++ | Last sale $400 | Oct 7, 2025 | 1 |
| Factory sealed (Thq Tm Logo) | WATA 9.0 A+ | Last sale $350 | Jul 22, 2025 | 1 |
