Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Victor Wembanyama [Mojo] #1 sell for $306, only $5.51 above the $300 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($278) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
