Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Bobby Orr #200 sells for $5,482 against $59.25 raw: a $5,423 spread, 93× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($835) 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.
