Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Mike Trout [Green Refractor] #BPAMT sells for $3,036 against $850 raw: a $2,186 spread, 3.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,760) 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.
