Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Zach Wilson [Lava] #304 sell for $11.00, only $0.00 above the $11.59 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($9.99) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
