Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Stephen Curry [Gold] #196 sells for $3,627 against $493 raw: a $3,134 spread, 7.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($921) 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.
