Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of T.J. Warren #12 sell for $17.00, only $0.00 above the $26.73 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($15.50) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
