Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Dylan Harper [Refractor Orange Geometric] #YQ-2 sells for $700 against $195 raw: a $505 spread, 3.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($245) 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.
