Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Ted Ku DiPietro [Autograph Red] #192 sell for $44.00, only $0.00 above the $84.38 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($39.95) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
