Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Shea Langeliers [Special Edition Red Ink] #ROA-SL sell for $69.00, only $0.00 above the $73.39 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($62.40) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
