Heritage Graded Sales
Heritage Auctions sold results below are real auction transactions for Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header on PlayStation. 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 Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header Matters for Grading
With 11 PSA-graded copies on record, Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header sits in the mid-rarity tier for PlayStation — graded copies surface periodically on eBay but command meaningful premiums over raw. Notable: every graded copy is in the sealed 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 16× — sealed copies trade at $84 while loose carts move around $5.14. That spread means a fresh sealed find is the move; raw cart flips have thinner margins after grading fees.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header PlayStation worth grading?
Mostly for sealed copies. The sealed-state population (11) outweighs CIB and loose for Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header, indicating sealed is where collector capital concentrates. CIB and loose grading is viable but margins are thinner after fees.
How rare is a graded sealed copy of Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header?
PSA tracks 11 graded sealed copies of Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header for PlayStation. The grade-tier breakdown above shows how those split across PSA’s numeric grades — top-grade copies (9.4+) are the scarcest and typically command the strongest premiums.
Should I buy a graded or raw copy of Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header?
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 Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header?
PSA’s database currently shows one tracked variant for Bases Loaded ‘96: Double Header on PlayStation. 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.
