Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jordan Poole [Red] #JPL sells for $201 against $49.99 raw: a $151 spread, 4.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($183) 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.
