Heritage Graded Sales
Heritage Auctions sold results below are real auction transactions for Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 on PlayStation 2. 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 Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Matters for Grading
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 is one of the more heavily-graded PlayStation 2 titles, with 63 PSA populations on record across loose, CIB, and sealed. Strong submission volume signals collector demand — and grade premiums are the market’s vote on which copies are scarce. 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. Sealed copies trade at roughly 4× the loose price ($200 vs $49). Solid spread for grading speculation if you can source a clean sealed cart.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 PlayStation 2 worth grading?
Mostly for sealed copies. The sealed-state population (63) outweighs CIB and loose for Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4, 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 Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4?
PSA tracks 63 graded sealed copies of Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 for PlayStation 2. 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 Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4?
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 Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4?
PSA’s database currently shows one tracked variant for Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 on PlayStation 2. 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.
