Selling Tips
Not economically viable to professionally grade due to high grading fees relative to the card's final value. Sell raw in a penny sleeve and top loader. List with keywords including 'HOF', 'Tampa Bay Devil Rays', and '3000th Hit era'. Ship securely in a standard envelope with rigid cardboard or a bubble mailer.
