Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Thor [Black Sapphire] #32 sell for $449, only $0.00 above the $698 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($350) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
