Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Adam Fantilli [Patch] #RR-AF sell for $82.00, only $0.00 above the $149 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($74.40) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
