Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Sal Frelick [Red] #SFA-SF sell for $120, only $0.00 above the $202 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($110) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
