Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Nils Hoglander [Clear Cut UD Exclusives] #462 sells for $127 against $8.50 raw: a $119 spread, 15× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($116) 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.
