Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Stephen Curry [Earth] #PPE-3 sells for $5,485 against $1,265 raw: a $4,220 spread, 4.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,898) 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.
