Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Del Crandall #339 sells for $4,680 against $3.24 raw: a $4,677 spread, 1444× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($68.40) 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.
