Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Cam Schlittler [Black Wave] #BCP-166 sells for $716 against $277 raw: a $439 spread, 2.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($651) 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.
