Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Gabriel Gomez [Purple Prizm] #223 sell for $4.00, only $0.00 above the $12.19 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($3.51) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
