Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Colin Kaepernick [Autograph Material] #327 sells for $825 against $135 raw: a $690 spread, 6.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($750) 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.
