Is it worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Alonzo Mourning [Refractor w/ Coating] #281 sells for $36.00 against $5.28 raw: a $30.72 spread, 6.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($33.00) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead.
