Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Bob Brown #134 sells for $1,107 against $6.09 raw: a $1,101 spread, 182× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($847) 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.
