Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Albert Pujols [Retrofractor] #596 sells for $44,000 against $3,662 raw: a $40,338 spread, 12× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($40,000) 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.
