Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Bob Odell [Error Photo Is Howard Odell] #91 sells for $1,372 against $98.80 raw: a $1,273 spread, 14× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,247) 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.
