Current Market Prices

All prices below are pulled directly from PriceCharting’s public catalog and refreshed each time this article regenerates (typically weekly). PriceCharting computes their values from active and recently-sold listings on eBay + their dealer network — 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).

• Loose cartridge: $15

• Complete in Box (CIB): $50

• Sealed: $1,000

Auction House Graded Sales

Heritage Auctions and Goldin sold results below are real auction transactions for Mortal Kombat 3 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 auction sale signals, sorted by format, recency, and realized-price signal. PSA production variants can price differently, so the sale records keep each auction house’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 Mortal Kombat 3 Matters for Grading

Exactly one PSA-graded copy of Mortal Kombat 3 for PlayStation 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 66× — sealed copies trade at $1,000 while loose carts move around $15. That spread means a fresh sealed find is the move; raw cart flips have thinner margins after grading fees.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Mortal Kombat 3 PlayStation worth grading?

Strong yes for clean copies. With only 1 graded copies on record, Mortal Kombat 3 is squarely in the rare-population tier for PlayStation — 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 Mortal Kombat 3?

Exactly one — 1 PSA-graded CIB copy of Mortal Kombat 3 on the census. Population-one rarity for collectors who care about that distinction.

Should I buy a graded or raw copy of Mortal Kombat 3?

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 Mortal Kombat 3?

PSA’s database currently shows one tracked variant for Mortal Kombat 3 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.
