Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Dave Lopes [Hand Cut] #67 sells for $31.50 against $3.99 raw: a $27.51 spread, 7.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($30.00) 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.
