Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 7 Bo Bichette [Father's Day Blue] #78 sells for $217 against $52.01 raw: a $165 spread, 4.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($175) 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.
