Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Will Clark [Red Refractor] #22 sells for $64.00 against $12.50 raw: a $51.50 spread, 5.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($58.12) 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.
