Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Daredevil [Red Refractor] #DD-1 sell for $314, only $0.00 above the $428 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($285) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
