Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Randy Orton #20 sell for $6.00, only $4.73 above the $1.27 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($5.04) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
