Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Tom Brady [Scorecard] #182 sells for $156 against $56.89 raw: a $99.11 spread, 2.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($125) 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.
