Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Shohei Ohtani #BGP-24 sells for $7,446 against $1,800 raw: a $5,646 spread, 4.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,717) 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.
