Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Nick Kyrgios #GSR-NKS sells for $258 against $51.00 raw: a $207 spread, 5.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($89.56) 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.
