Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of アルセウスV sell for $85.75, only $0.00 above the $1,800 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($29.52) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

| 50% | $57.63 | −$1,792 |
