Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Maui [Black White Speckle Refractor] #170 sells for $164 against $72.08 raw: a $91.92 spread, 2.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($149) 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.
