Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Aaron Judge [Mini-Diamond] #BS-13 sells for $120 against $20.37 raw: a $99.29 spread, 5.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($98.00) 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.
