Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Trae Young [Fast Break Prizm] #78 sells for $109 against $19.06 raw: a $89.94 spread, 5.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($91.00) 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.
