Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Pete Harnisch [Refractor] #62 sells for $79.00 against $20.50 raw: a $58.50 spread, 3.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($72.10) 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.
