Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Chromed CHRIS [Purple] #AN2a sell for $11.00, only $0.00 above the $12.77 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($10.00) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
