Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Artemi Panarin #115 sell for $24.00, only $18.62 above the $5.38 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($22.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
