Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Ron Dayne [Piece 2] #SP-RD sell for $33.00, only $0.00 above the $41.28 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($29.99) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
