Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Yordan Alvarez [Diamond] #UL-10 sells for $44.00 against $0.96 raw: a $43.04 spread, 46× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($39.99) 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.
