Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Tarik Skubal [SSP] #92 sells for $667 against $155 raw: a $512 spread, 4.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($350) 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.
