Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Henrik Zetterberg #182 sells for $68.51 against $21.08 raw: a $47.43 spread, 3.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($49.99) 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.
