Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Vitor Roque [Zebra] #249 sell for $36.00, only $5.77 above the $30.23 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($33.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
