Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 N. L. RBI Leaders [G. Luzinski, J. Bench, T. Perez] #195 sells for $40.00 against $1.99 raw: a $38.01 spread, 20× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($35.99) 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.
