Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Matt Cain [Orange Refractor] #48 sells for $120 against $5.36 raw: a $115 spread, 22× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($99.99) 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.
