Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Berry sells for $92.20 against $0.61 raw: a $91.59 spread, 151× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($29.65) 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.
