Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Graham Pauley [Memorial Day Camo] #US84 sell for $18.00, only $0.00 above the $20.09 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($16.00) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
