Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Udonis Haslem [Autograph] #188 sells for $87.00 against $14.80 raw: a $72.20 spread, 5.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($78.99) 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.
