Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Manny Sanguillen [Hits 324] #13 sells for $335 against $42.81 raw: a $292 spread, 7.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($304) 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.
