Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Lamine Yamal #1 sells for $6,752 against $1,325 raw: a $5,427 spread, 5.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,323) 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.
