Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Tramp [Black Wave Refractor] #25 sells for $1,408 against $128 raw: a $1,280 spread, 11× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,280) 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.
