Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Paige Bueckers [Signature] #86 sells for $1,005 against $570 raw: a $435 spread, 1.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($675) 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.
