Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jalen Brunson [Red, White, and Blue Prizm] #250 sells for $529 against $59.00 raw: a $470 spread, 9.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($127) 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.
