Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Jason Kidd [Blue] #29 sell for $219, only $6.39 above the $213 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($199) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
