Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Boog Powell #50 sells for $71.00 against $3.25 raw: a $67.75 spread, 22× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($59.23) 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.
