Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Venom [Green] #40 sell for $28.00, only $6.92 above the $21.08 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($25.90) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
