Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Remy [Purple Refractor] #117 sell for $55.00, only $0.00 above the $58.17 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($50.00) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

Raw (NM): $58.17
Grade 9.5: $55.00
