Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Ryan Garcia [Orange Refractor] #TRA-RG sells for $223 against $130 raw: a $93.00 spread, 1.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($203) 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.
