Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Android 16 SB01-002 sells for $59.00 against $0.65 raw: a $58.35 spread, 91× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($53.92) 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.
