Is it worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Heat Factory ◇ sells for $500 against $2.79 raw: a $497 spread, 179× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($45.00) 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.
