Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Fred Enke #82 sells for $12,276 against $45.00 raw: a $12,231 spread, 273× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,281) 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.
