Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Logan Gilbert [Holo] #81S-LG sell for $10.00, only $0.00 above the $10.41 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($9.31) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
