Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Hulk [Essential Credentials Now] #EX34 sell for $48.00, only $0.00 above the $57.00 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($44.00) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
