Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Kanan Jarrus [Red Refractor] #30 sell for $220, only $5.03 above the $215 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($200) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
