Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Battle-Ready [Orange Refractor] #15 sell for $45.00, only $0.00 above the $115 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($41.00) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
