Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jay Z [Refractor] #101 sells for $1,700 against $80.16 raw: a $1,620 spread, 21× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($119) 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.
