Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Cristiano Ronaldo / Lionel Messi [Red White Blue Power Plaid] #19 sells for $3,767 against $598 raw: a $3,170 spread, 6.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($3,425) 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.
