Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Kaoru Mitoma [Orange Ice] #196 sell for $120, only $0.00 above the $1,729 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($109) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

Raw (NM): $1,729
