Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Fernando Tatis Jr. [Atomic] #TP-24 sells for $49.00 against $8.26 raw: a $40.74 spread, 5.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($40.69) 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.
