Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 RJ Barrett [Gold] #178 sells for $27,528 against $2,000 raw: a $25,528 spread, 14× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($25,025) 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.
