Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Bijan Robinson #21 sells for $1,022 against $497 raw: a $525 spread, 2.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($550) 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.
