Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Mike Piazza [Members Only] #585 sells for $480 against $2.61 raw: a $477 spread, 184× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($61.16) 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.
