Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Jalen Williams [White] #217 sell for $220, only $5.00 above the $215 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($155) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
