Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Snatch Steal SRL-036 sells for $189 against $7.70 raw: a $181 spread, 25× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($34.64) 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.
