Is it worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Kobe Bryant [Gold Refractor] #8 sells for $14,999 against $2,630 raw: a $12,369 spread, 5.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($8,655) 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.
