Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of LeBron James [Galactic] #88 sell for $1,539, only $0.00 above the $1,588 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($1,399) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
