Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Bill Ripken [Black Box Over Error] #616 sells for $137 against $20.00 raw: a $117 spread, 6.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($47.00) 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.
