Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Caitlin Clark [Holo Laser] #51 sells for $886 against $706 raw: a $180 spread, 1.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($805) 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.
