Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Byron Chourio [Orange] #BCP-129 sell for $23.00, only $15.20 above the $7.80 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($21.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
