Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Riley Greene [Autograph] #AS-8 sell for $71.00, only $0.00 above the $99.90 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($64.99) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
