Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jacob Misiorowski [Image Variation] #144 sells for $489 against $100 raw: a $389 spread, 4.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($168) 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.
