Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Hirving Lozano [Blue Refractor] #89 sells for $48.00 against $7.50 raw: a $40.50 spread, 6.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($43.99) 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.
