Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Francisco Lindor [Green Speckle Image Variation] #170 sells for $52.17 against $6.08 raw: a $46.09 spread, 8.6× 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. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
