Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Roger Maris [All Star] #565 sells for $8,182 against $44.00 raw: a $8,138 spread, 186× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,235) 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.
