Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Spider-Man [Red Geometric Refractor] #61 sell for $2,199, only $0.00 above the $7,614 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($1,999) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
