Is Kris Bryant #BS-7 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Kris Bryant #BS-7 sells for $215 against $1.71 raw: a $213 spread, 126× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($196) 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.
