Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of Skiddo sell for $22.00, only $21.81 above the $0.19 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. Even a PSA 9 ($30.00) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

Expected value — how often does it need to gem?
| Chance it gems | Expected sale | Expected net (standard fee) |
|---|---|---|
| 25% | $28.00 | −$22.19 |
| 50% | $26.00 | −$24.19 |
| 75% | $24.00 | −$26.19 |
Even a miss (a 9) beats selling raw after the standard fee — the gem rate only decides how much you win by.
