Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Scarlet Spider [Precious Metal Gems Red] #71 sell for $135, only $0.00 above the $152 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($122) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
