Is grading worth it — at the real gem rate?
Buying raw at $171 and grading: a 10 nets ~$1,988, a 9 nets ~$252. At this card's real 16% gem rate, the expected outcome is +$333 after a ~$25 grading fee — assuming a clean copy that grades 9 or 10. Below-9 outcomes make it worse; a sharp eye for centering and surface is what beats these odds.
