Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Zombie Hunter Spidey [Cosmic] #BD17 sell for $81.00, only $0.00 above the $140 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($73.70) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
