Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Miles Morales [Orange Sapphire] #81 sell for $330, only $0.00 above the $672 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($300) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
