Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Rasheed Wallace Superfractor 1/1 #30 sells for $9,461 against $23.64 raw: a $9,437 spread, 400× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($8,601) 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.
