Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Josh Sargent [Autograph Orange Refractor] #27 sells for $290 against $19.31 raw: a $271 spread, 15× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($264) 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.
