Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Xavi Hernandez [Blue Prizm] #180 sells for $70.00 against $9.77 raw: a $60.23 spread, 7.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($63.84) 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.
