Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Branlyn Jaraba #CPA-BJ sells for $33.11 against $1.57 raw: a $31.54 spread, 21× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($32.75) 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.
