Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of ラティアス☆ sell for $3,948, only $0.00 above the $1,000,000 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($4,152) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

| 50% | $4,050 | −$996,000 |
