Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 John Smoltz [Photo of Tom Glavine] #BC-12 sells for $122 against $1.79 raw: a $121 spread, 68× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($30.00) 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.
