Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Luka Doncic [Green Shock] #1 sell for $18.00, only $10.50 above the $7.50 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($16.75) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
