Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Larry Nance Jr. Fast Break Prizm Autograph #288 sell for $28.00, only $23.00 above the $5.00 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($25.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
