Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Derek Jeter [Mini Foil] #2 sell for $17.00, only $0.00 above the $24.99 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.
