Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Ron Mercer [Refractor] #BP9 sells for $369 against $7.69 raw: a $361 spread, 48× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($335) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
