Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Kim Clijsters [Green] #SS-KCS sell for $38.00, only $0.00 above the $66.00 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($34.87) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
