Grading rarely pays for this card

PSA 10 copies of Single Strike Urshifu VMAX sell for $298, only $0.00 above the $55,000 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($170) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
