Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Kon Knueppel [Refractor Orange Geometric] #VS-9 sells for $1,205 against $236 raw: a $969 spread, 5.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($377) 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.
