Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Cooper Flagg #NS-CF sells for $2,664 against $972 raw: a $1,693 spread, 2.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,225) 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.
