Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Tyrod Taylor [Autograph] #292 sells for $102 against $40.80 raw: a $61.20 spread, 2.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($92.62) 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.
