Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Rey Mysterio [Gold Prizm] #5 sell for $56.00, only $21.67 above the $34.33 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($50.50) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
