Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Stan Jonathan #113 sells for $32.00 against $1.87 raw: a $30.13 spread, 17× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($29.00) 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.
